Canberra’s latest world-class events venue, built by locals for the community, is making waves. Red Shed, located right on Lake Burley Griffin, boasts state-of-the-art facilities, the latest audio-visual technology, and catering managed by Occasioni. Operating as a not-for-profit, the Red Shed is dedicated to making rowing accessible to everyone—regardless of age, ability, identity, or socioeconomic background.

The popular luxe farm-style Pialligo Estate has reopened under new management, with impressive culinary pedigree and versatility for function set ups. Set overlooking green fields by the Molonglo River and yet only 10 minutes from the CBD and 4 minutes from Canberra airport, Pialligo Estate combines rustic charm with modern luxury.

For a private coastal bush experience, the stunning Willinga Park has opened its doors to non-equine events, offering a range of venue options from intimate meetings to gala dinners and expos. Nestled in the breathtaking landscape of Bawley Point on 2,600 acres of unspoilt beauty, Willinga Park boasts one of Australia’s largest private solar panel micro-grids, a Tesla battery storage system, a state-of-the-art water recycling system and worm farms turning its organic waste into fertiliser to feed the 10 acres of botanical gardens.
