The City of Perth Skyworks (previously named for other sponsors) was a large scale fireworks show in Perth, Western Australia that was held annually on Australia Day (26 January) over Perth Water, the section of the Swan River adjacent to the central business district. For many years the City of Perth Skyworks were the largest fireworks celebration in the country on Australia Day.

The event ran every year from 1985 to 2022, except for 2017 when the show was cancelled due to a plane crash on the Swan River, and in 2021 when it was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. After the 2022 Skyworks, the City of Perth decided to end the long running event for a number of reasons including waning interest, environmental concerns, and the high financial cost of putting on the show. From 2023 onwards it has been replaced by a more modest and localised fireworks display coupled with a drone show presented in front of Langley Park.
