Discovery Events taps into regional C&E demand with new spaces for 2024
Regional event venue operator Discovery Events has unveiled a refreshed portfolio for 2024, headlined by the launch of a new 30-person executive boardroom space in the picturesque Adelaide Hills.
Sitting atop 32 acres of beautiful grounds adjacent to the region’s most awarded business event venue, Adelaide Hills Convention Centre, and just 800 metres from the picturesque main street of Hahndorf, the new Summit Boardroom is ideal for board meetings, workshops and corporate retreats.
The Boardroom includes a purpose-built 30-seat board table with integrated AV and video conferencing facilities, open gas fireplace and lounge area. It also offers an adjoining function space with a fully equipped bar, lounge area and open plan layout perfect as a break-out space or for intimate dinners leading out to an expansive alfresco space and lawn area.
It’s the latest in a series of new investments and upgrades by Discovery Events - which is owned by Australia’s leading regional travel business G’day Group - as it looks to capitalise on demand for unique regional event venues.
In addition to the development of the Summit Boardroom, Discovery Events has recently added a venue in Alice Springs to its portfolio and completed renovations of its facilities in Byron Bay, Nagambie and Lake Hume, reimagining these venues as modern, high-quality facilities to cater for conferences, weddings and other special events.
The redevelopment of the Nagambie Lakes Function Centre Lakes has been a project of persistence. The Function Centre is located on site at Discovery Parks - Nagambie Lakes, which was heavily impacted by flooding in late 2022. Over more than 12 months, the Discovery Events team worked tirelessly to re-imagine the Function Centre. The revamped floorplan now features a standalone Executive Boardroom and an extended commercial kitchen, while on-site accommodation has been upgraded and elevated above major flood levels, offering picturesque views of the Goulburn River.
Discovery Events General Manager Victoria Fox said the new spaces were designed to offer broad appeal, ensuring that Discovery Events has options to suit every type of event in stunning regional locations with the convenience of on-site accommodation.
"What we’re seeing in the market is great appeal for getting away out of the city with your team or for a conference or special event. For corporates, it’s the perfect opportunity to disconnect from every day and ensure your team can clearly focus on what you’re there to achieve,” Victoria said.
“For special events, such as destination weddings, we have a great range of quality spaces with the convenience of on-site accommodation, so you have everything you need to host the perfect event, all in one place.
“We’re continuing to invest in and expand our portfolio and we’re proud to be home to some of the most unique event venues in Australia. Importantly, these investments are also creating broader regional economic benefits by attracting thousands of delegates each year, many of whom stay multiple days and spend their money in the local community.”
In addition to premier event spaces, Discovery Events also offers a fully integrated event planning service to ensure your event is a success.
