It’s been over two years since Australia and England played out a thrilling drawn Ashes series in the UK — and now, the battle for the urn returns to Aussie soil. To mark this iconic sporting moment, the Australian British Chamber of Commerce invites you to an unforgettable afternoon at our Ashes Lunch in Perth.
Join fellow cricket tragics for a celebration of the Ashes legacy, where history, rivalry, and camaraderie come alive. Your tickets include a delicious two course lunch, refreshments throughout, and Q&A opportunities with cricketing legends. You’ll also have an opportunity to win some fantastic raffle prizes as we raise funds for the WA Cricket Foundation – whose mission is to champion diversity, inclusion and belonging. Their initiatives include Aboriginal cricket, support for people with disabilities, empowering young women in cricket, and creating an inclusive community hub at the iconic WACA Ground.
Expect appearances from special guest speakers — players who’ve lived the rivalry, felt the heat, and earned the glory. You’ll hear behind-the-scenes stories, tactical insights, and enjoy a bit of classic banter that only Ashes cricket can deliver.
Whether you’re cheering for the Baggy Green or backing the Barmy Army, this is your chance to immerse yourself in cricket tradition and connect with fellow fans as the Ashes series reignites.

Alec Stewart OBE
Former England and Surrey Cricket Captain
Alec Stewart OBE is a former England cricket captain.
Educated at Tiffin Boys’ School in Kingston-upon-Thames, Alec made his cricket debut for Surrey in 1981.
He made his England debut in the first Test of the 1989/90 tour of the West Indies. Alec Stewart was vice-captain of the England team during most of Michael Atherton’s tenure as captain. Alec eventually succeeded Michael, becoming Captain in 1998.
During his captaincy, he had the unusual distinction of simultaneously captaining the side, opening the batting and keeping wicket. In 1994, at the Kensington Oval in the West Indies, Alec Stewart became the 7th English batsman to score centuries in both innings of a test match. His highest Test score was 190 against Pakistan in the first Edgbaston Test on 4th June 1992.
With 133 international caps, Alec Stewart is one of the highest capped English Test cricketers of all time.
After 20 years in County and International cricket, his final match was a very high profile one at his home ground The Oval against South Africa in the summer of 2003.
Stewart now works in the media and acts as an executive director of Surrey.
