Up to and including 2012, the venue was the Burswood Dome at the Burswood Entertainment Complex, Perth. The 20th edition, in 2008, was to be the last held at the Burswood Dome, however it was extended until 2012, by which time the new Perth Arena would be ready. From 2013 to 2019, it was played at the Perth Arena.
In 2019, for the 31st edition of the tournament, a record crowd of 14,064 attended the match between the United States and Switzerland. Roger Federer and Belinda Bencic won and Federer became the first player to win the tournament three times. The Hopman Cup was not held in 2020 and was replaced by the new ATP Cup, which in 2022 has been discontinued.
