The lights on the Mandurah Bridge have proved a hit since they were first turned on. They add a fun dimension to Mandurah with the bridge being lit every night in different colours – in fact, there are over 6.7 million possible colours.

And now your charitable or not for profit organisation can get in on the action by booking the lights for a day to help promote your organisation's special event or appeal.

So far the bridge has been lit up orange for Emergency Service volunteers, blue for World Inflammatory Bowel Disease Day, and pink and teal for Sarcoma Awareness. To book the lights:

  1. Read the 'Booking Guidelines'
