VENUE HIRE
Our Village Hub, located at 5 Mackie Street Victoria Park is used primarily for various in-house activities, however there are opportunities for external hirers. These hirers help us to remain viable while offering a broader range of uses to enhance our community.
We welcome bookings for events such as book launches, school dances, meetings, support groups, training sessions, workshops and some exercise classes. Sorry we are unavailable for party bookings.

The Hall is timber floored and licensed to accommodate 190 people. It can seat approximately 120 people comfortably. There is a small stage with a piano, basic sound system and drop down screen at the end of the Hall.
