We have indoor venues available for hire. Our venue hire support grants help community and cultural groups and organisations host events, concerts, fundraisers, conferences, meetings and community gatherings.
Cultural, environmental and community groups and organisations that demonstrate financial hardship can apply.
Support is available for community venues and landmark venues.
Outdoor venues aren’t available for value-in-kind requests. For outdoor events, contact [email protected].
Support is available in the form of one-off or multi-year (up to 3 years) reduced rates for community and landmark venue hire, subject to availability.
Not-for-profit organisations are eligible for a 25% reduction on equipment hire fees at landmark venues (for equipment owned by the City of Sydney).
To book a community venue, contact [email protected] for a quote and make a tentative booking if your project is time sensitive.
