Karstens venues offer a range of premium conference, meeting and function spaces across Australia and New Zealand. With our Central CBD locations, our venues provide a dedicated and professional space for clients who value a business environment without the distractions that come with multi-purpose venues or hotels. Flexibility : We tailor your event to your requirements, offering a range of flexible seating layouts, audio/visual configurations and gourmet catering options. We also offer the option to downsize your booking to a smaller or larger room if the number of attendees changes closer to your event date*. Comfort & Space : All Karstens venues provide rooms with natural daylight, comfortable breakout areas, free Wi-Fi, Nespresso coffee and a selection of premium teas. This provides the perfect environment to relax, refresh and network. Gourmet in-house catering : We strongly believe in quality over quantity, especially when it comes to food. That’s why we offer a full gourmet in-house catering experience with a variety of healthy menu options. Common dietary requirements are provided at no extra cost. Central CBD Locations with on-site car parking : All of our venues are conveniently located right in the heart of the CBD, close to hotels, cafes, restaurants, shopping and public transport. Each of our venues also offer ample on-site parking (or parking close by) to ensure that your attendees always have an easy arrival and departure. Fully renovated, modern and high tech : Our venues provide a truly modern and executive space fully equipped with the latest technology and infrastructure. This includes comfortable eight-hour chairs, free Wi-Fi, fast fibre optic internet connection and video/telephone conferencing facilities in all rooms (on request). Dedicated point of contact : We offer a dedicated Conference Coordinator for all your bookings in Australia and New Zealand. Our coordinator ensures that each of your events is managed seamlessly from start to finish. Rebooking or rolling out a road show is easy, as we can rebook your previous event or book the same event across all of our venues.

Just click the link with your quote and fill out the confirmation form and your event is confirmed. No deposit needed : Unlike other venues, we don’t require a deposit for bookings under $5,000.00.
