Every now and then The State Library of Western unveils some old gold from Perth’s past that we just cannot ignore, and last night they shared a heap of photos from our beloved city’s glory days of clubbing.

We’re talking iconic clubs like Pinocchios, Hannibal’s, Sirocco, The Red Parrot, Gobbles… Back when crowds were foot loose and fancy free, you didn’t have to consider dipping into your retirement savings to buy a house, and climate change was just the Freo Doctor not coming in one afternoon.

If these photos are anything to go by, it’s almost as if Perth had a nightclub on every corner, and we’re here for it.

We hope you enjoy these photos as much as everyone seems to be enjoying themselves in these photos, and you can head to the State Library Facebook Page to check out the rest.
