This year, The Rocks Youth is going to MAIN EVENT, a statewide stadium gathering, hosted by Youth Alive WA! MAIN EVENT is a statement event that aims to unite young people across WA. It's like a Youth Night - filled with games, worship, an inspiring message, and community - but with every other youth in WA! We're so excited to take part in the bigger picture of what God is doing in our city!

FAQs
Can I pick up/drop off my teen at PCEC?
Yes, you are welcome to, however, we recommend picking them up from The Rocks Cannington/Baldivis, as the event aftermath will be very congested. Please ask your teen to let their small group leader know if you are picking them up or dropping them off at the venue.
What time should I pick up my teen?
Between 10PM and 10:30PM. Please note that when the event finishes at 9:00pm, there will be over 5000 youth and young adult leaders leaving the Perth PCEC via multiple buses at the same time. We ask for your patience and grace as we carefully navigate our way back to The Rocks Cannington/Baldivis after the event finishes. Our focus is to ensure all of our young people are safe to and from the venue! Please stay in contact with your teen, and/or your teen's small group leader.
Will there be food provided?
Yes, we will provide sandwiches and light snacks at The Rocks Cannington before we travel on the bus. Note that Youth Alive are not providing food at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Does my teen need a SmartRider for the bus?
No. We have hired a private coach bus to transport our youth to this event. There will be youth leaders on the bus with them to ensure everyone's safety.
