Local planning

What Newcastle venues ask.

  1. Marquees on exposed ground

    Headlands, the foreshore and open parks can be windy. Ask how a marquee and other outdoor pieces will be anchored.

  2. Heritage terraces

    Narrow hallways and steps are common in older streets. Share photos of the access.

  3. Beyond the city boundary

    Lake Macquarie, Port Stephens and the Hunter Valley are separate council areas. Your suburb tells suppliers where the event is.

  4. City centre parking

    Streets around the city centre have time-limited parking. Share loading options with suppliers.

Settings

Harbour, warehouse or terrace.

Harbour and foreshore

By the water

Foreshore and harbourside spaces bring views and wind in equal measure.

Industrial conversions

Rooms with history

Converted industrial buildings suit long tables and warm lighting, usually with everything brought in.

Terraces and backyards

Parties at home

Older streets have tight access, while suburbs further west tend to have larger blocks.
