Looking for conference rooms in Adelaide?

Deciding on the most suitable venue for your conference is critical to the success of your event. Once you have identified the type of event you are planning and its purpose, you must know who your audience will be and how many people you expect to attend. Next, decide on timings – if you can be flexible with your dates, you will have more venue options. Other key considerations that will help you find the most suitable conference venues Adelaide include the venue facilities, location and proximity to transport and accommodation. We offer 3D virtual tours for many of our event spaces to help narrow down your selection before going for a site visit. If you have any questions or would like help from the experts at HeadBox to help plan your next event, get in touch with us.

Budgeting for a conference can be a tricky thing. Venues will often provide a base hire fee before adding on extra costs for things like staffing, audiovisual equipment and in-house catering (think of all the coffee needed to keep your attendees going!). Some venues will quote you for a price per attendee, so you know how much is being spent on each individual.

It’s good to get an idea of how much you’re willing to spend before you approach the venue, this reduces any misunderstandings down the line and could be a massive time saver.

Whether you are planning a small private conference just for live attendees, or a large one with stalls and satellite links, there is a conference venue in Adelaide that will work perfectly for you!

Where would you like your conference? In the heart of Adelaide’s commercial district? The Adelaide Convention Centre, perhaps? Or would you like to hold your conference out of the city, such as in the wine region?

Wherever you want, we have the venue, from the bustling CBD to green rolling hills.

Will they be carefully selected top-notch clients who don’t need to move much and will want to have the facilities come to them?

Or is your conference open to the public? For these guests you may need tickets, they may need signage to move around and coffee/tea and refreshments etc.

Know your guests and ask each conference venue what they can provide.

Many modern conferences are a blend of live attendees and some virtual guests. Of importance is the question: How much do you want to cater to those in person, and how much interaction do you want from your virtual guests?

Will there be a presentation? Who will handle the tech? You may have a panel of live guests, plus a televised special guest, or field questions from a live viewing audience.

The venues you speak to, can tell you what has been held in this space before and how successful it was.

If your conference is open to the public, they may be happy with a sandwich and a coffee from a café.

But other conferences may require you to treat your special guests very well, especially if they have come from interstate or overseas.

Some conference venues can provide excellent day delegate packages with flexible seating arrangements.

A lot of conferences attract visitors from afar (especially the large ones in convention centres). Take this into account when booking your conference venue. Looking for quality venues near travel hubs is a great way to make getting to and from your conference much easier. And less travelling = less grumpy conference attendees. Some attendees may wish to get to your Adelaide event via car. If this is the case you’ll want to enquire with the conference venues about parking facilities.

For short formal meetings, you may prefer somewhere close to the city, the airport, the Adelaide Oval or the Adelaide Convention Centre. In which case we have a conference venue in exactly the right spot for you!

Whether you need to host a workshop, seminar, round-table symposium, corporate startup, academic summit, sports or government conferences, Adelaide venues can give you exactly what you need.

Just describe what you need and the right venue will find you.

When you are looking to host a more relaxed conference, you might like to get out of the city and treat your guests to views of the countryside or the beach.

For a slower-paced meeting, book a conference in the wine-growing region of Adelaide Hills, just 15 minutes from the city. Or perhaps give them a beach view, with meeting rooms overlooking the Holdfast Promenade of Glenelg.

Hire a meeting room that will give your guests a natural environment with the best that South Australia has to offer.
