Victoria Park doesn’t slow down. Between the all day breakfast crowd on Albany Highway, the late night crowd spilling out of the Vic Park Hotel, match day traffic rolling in from Optus Stadium, and Curtin University students chasing trains and trams across town, this is one of the busiest little pockets of Perth   and getting a taxi here shouldn’t be the hard part of your day.

That’s where Nova Taxi comes in. We’re Perth’s trusted local taxi service, and Victoria Park is one of our busiest service areas for a reason: we show up, we know the streets, and we don’t leave you standing on Albany Highway wondering if your ride is still coming.

Why Victoria Park Needs a Taxi Service It Can Rely On

Vic Park sits just minutes from the CBD, but it has its own rhythm. It’s dense, it’s lively, and it’s sandwiched between some of Perth’s biggest traffic generators — Crown Perth, Optus Stadium, and Belmont Park Racecourse are all a short ride away. That means demand spikes fast: footy nights, concerts, race days, and weekend dinners on Albany Highway all pull taxis into the suburb at once.

If you’ve ever tried to flag a ride on event night and watched every car drive past full, you already know why pre-booking with a local operator like Nova Taxi makes all the difference. We plan around Victoria Park’s event calendar, not just its postcode.

The industrial and commercial strip along Kelvin Road and the surrounding streets means a lot of shift workers in Maddington. People who start at 5am, finish at 11pm, or do rotating rosters that don’t align with standard public transport hours. For this kind of working schedule, having a reliable 24/7 taxi service that operates on fixed fares isn’t a luxury — it’s a practical necessity.

Maddington Train Station is on the Armadale line, which gives direct access to Perth CBD. But the train doesn’t run all night, it doesn’t go to the airport without transfers, and it doesn’t reach the industrial areas on the eastern side of the suburb. So taxis fill the gaps that public transport leaves.

Getting to and from Optus Stadium and Crown Perth, Sorted

Victoria Park is right next door to two of WA’s biggest entertainment precincts. On game day or concert night, the area around Burswood and Victoria Park Drive turns into one of the busiest taxi zones in the state — and rideshare surge pricing tends to follow the crowds.

Nova Taxi drivers know the smartest routes in and out of the stadium precinct, the quietest pickup points away from the main crush, and the fastest way back into Vic Park once the final siren or encore hits. Whether you’re headed to:

  • A footy match or concert at Optus Stadium
  • A night at the tables or a show at Crown Perth
  • The races at Belmont Park Racecourse

booking ahead with Nova Taxi means you’re not standing in a queue of thousands trying to order a rideshare car that isn’t coming any time soon.

A Taxi for Every Trip Down Albany Highway

Albany Highway is the heart of Victoria Park — a strip packed with cafés, bars, restaurants, and some of Perth’s best multicultural dining. It’s also one of the easiest places in Perth to need a taxi at short notice, whether that’s:

  • A quick ride to dinner so you don’t have to worry about parking
  • A safe trip home after drinks at the Vic Park Hotel, Boston Brewing Co., or The Dutch Trading Co.
  • A group booking for a birthday dinner or work catch-up along the strip

Nova Taxi runs standard sedans, maxi taxis for bigger groups, and wheelchair-accessible vehicles for passengers who need them — all bookable through the same simple process, with no surcharge for needing a bit more space or support.

Perth Airport Taxi

Students, Commuters, and Curtin University

With Curtin University just around the corner, Victoria Park sees a steady flow of students and staff who need transport outside regular train and bus hours — late-night study sessions, early exams, or simply avoiding a long walk home after dark.

Nova Taxi operates 24/7 across Victoria Park, so whether you’re catching an early flight after an all-nighter or just need a safe, quick ride home from campus, there’s always a car available.

Perth Airport Transfers from Victoria Park

Victoria Park’s location just off the Armadale and Kewdale routes makes it one of the more convenient suburbs for airport runs — and one of our most booked routes. A Nova Taxi airport transfer from Victoria Park typically takes around 15–20 minutes to Perth Airport, traffic depending, with upfront pricing so there are no surprises waiting for you at the terminal.

Heading off on an early flight or landing late at night? Book your Nova Taxi in advance and skip the uncertainty of finding a ride at either end of your trip.

For local offices, Nova Taxi offers reliable corporate travel for client pickups, airport runs for visiting staff, and scheduled transfers that turn up on time, every time.

One call or one booking through the app, and a Nova Taxi driver who already knows the local streets handles the rest.

Booking Around Victoria Park's Busiest Times

Knowing when Victoria Park gets busy is half the battle when it comes to getting a ride without delay. A few patterns worth keeping in mind:

  • Friday and Saturday nights along Albany Highway — dinner and pub crowds peak from around 7pm, with a second wave once venues close
  • Optus Stadium event nights — taxis and rideshare vehicles get pulled toward Burswood from the moment gates open, so demand in surrounding Vic Park streets thins out fast
  • Race days at Belmont Park — afternoon and early evening pickups are in high demand on race day, especially around the carpark exits
  • Curtin University exam periods — late-night and early-morning bookings spike as students pull all-nighters in the library

Booking your Nova Taxi ahead of these windows — even just an hour or two in advance — means you’re not competing with everyone else trying to grab a ride at the same moment. For anything tied to a stadium event, race day, or a flight, we always recommend locking in your pickup time rather than waiting to book on the day.

Fixed fares. Licensed and police cleared drivers. No surge pricing. Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week across Maddington and the full Perth southeast corridor.
