As obvious as it may sound, communication is the key when it comes to event planning. Remember to ask the venue manager about any specific rules (e.g. alcohol policy or loud music at night) – it’s always better to know about these in advance, so you can plan accordingly. Last but not least, take a while to think and decide on the perfect seating plan for your event. Warehouse spaces are quite versatile when it comes to managing the space, and this guide to seating arrangements will help you get things spot on!

Your best bet is to focus on formerly industrial areas. The most popular ones include:

• Alexandria – Here’s where factory buildings have been naturally transformed into lofts and creative hubs. Alexandria’s warehouses are bursting with new ideas and are happy to serve as locations for workshops and pop up events, as well as celebrating special occasions with your best mates.

• Waterloo – This South Inner Sydney neighbourhood knows how to make the most of its industrial heritage. Waterloo is packed full with converted warehouses, many of which became homes to tech and design studios, but are just as happy to host different kinds of events.

• Surry Hills – Some call it Sydney’s buzziest neighbourhood, and we’re not surprised at all. Surry Hills is home to impressive warehouses that have been lovingly transformed into art galleries and multifunctional event spaces. Why don’t you see for yourself?

Add a little warmth with fairy lights and candles. Another good idea is to make use of natural accents – bits of flowers and greenery here and there will keep everything in balance!

A popular idea is to go for a buffet-style catering and finger food. Warehouse venues in Sydney are usually quite spacious, so your guests get the opportunity to mix, mingle and serve themselves.
