Westfield Innaloo is a major shopping centre in the northern suburbs of

Perth. It is located at the corner of Scarborough Beach Road and Ellen Stirling Boulevard (formerly Oswald Street) in Innaloo, approximately 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) north-west of the Perth central business district
.

The shopping centre is approximately 1 kilometre (0.62 mi), or 3 minutes by bus, from Stirling Train Station, and is part of Stirling City Centre.[2]

In 2020 the shopping centre was intended to be rebranded to Westfield Stirling,

Bindjareb men, women and children on 28 October 1834 now known as the Pinjarra massacre. That massacre lasted at least an hour and resulted in the deaths of one soldier and an estimated 15–30 men, women and children.[9]

History

The shopping centre, originally known as Innaloo Shoppers Village, was developed in 1967 to service Innaloo and newly developed

Target store, and a Coles Supermarkets
(known as Coles New World at the time), were added to the centre in 1980.

The centre was acquired by

Coles Myer in 1983. Nine years later, the centre's name was changed to Innaloo City Centre and a 375-seat food court and Kmart were added.[10]

In 1996, Westfield Group acquired the centre and changed its name to Westfield Innaloo. In 2004–05, the centre grew in size by over 25% as more than 30 specialty stores were added and the Coles supermarket was relocated.[11][12] In July 2014 the Westfield Group became two companies (Scentre Group and Westfield Corporation), with ownership and management of the centre transferring to Scentre Group.[13] A new entrance was also built to go with previously erected signage nearby, and Westfield acquired the adjacent Centro Innaloo and renamed it Innaloo Megacentre.[14]

Future development

In December 2019 Scentre Group announced it had deferred a redevelopment of Westfield Innaloo.[15] The $600 million work would have seen the complex doubling in size to 110,000 square metres (1,200,000 sq ft) of retail space, joining Westfield Carousel as Western Australia's biggest shopping centre.
