FAQs about Top Affordable Conference Venues in Melbourne
Affordable conference venues in Melbourne are usually priced based on set hire fees or per person packages. The latter usually ranges from around $25 to $60 per person. If you are looking to hire a venue for a short event, you might want to consider affordable options with hourly rates, which usually average around $20-$80 per hour. For longer conferences, hire fees priced on a per session or per day basis might be the cheaper solution; in these cases, expect prices to start somewhere around $150-$200. You may also find some smaller conference venues that charge a minimum spend, which means you're hiring the space for free and agreeing to spend a set amount of money on food and/or drinks during the event. In these types of venues, the average minimum spend in Melbourne will begin around $400. (All data from Tagvenue.)
Look around the CBD for some great budget-friendly event spaces in hotels, meeting venues, and co-working spaces. You should also check out Southbank for some other affordable conference venues. Checking out venues outside of the city centre is also a really good idea. Brighton is a great location if you’re looking for a conference room near the coastline, while Hawthorn is home to some excellent options near major roadways.
When you’re hiring a conference venue in Melbourne, start by determining your budget. After you’ve done that, you should put together a plan that encompasses all of your requirements for your event.
