The Banksia Stadium is opening its doors for Multi The Banksia Stadium is opening its doors for Multi-Purpose Events
 
Rollout flooring has come to the Banksia Stadium and the Stadium can now be used for almost any purpose – the days of saying NO to hiring the venue out because we have to protect the floorboards have gone because we now have the finest floor coverings in the country (yes we said the country) and so it's open slather in the stadium (almost).
 
If you would like to hold an exhibition, a market, a concert, a school play, the list is endless you can now use this venue, and you can wear your street shoes with confidence.
 
The floor covering is only one of two in Australia and we are desperate to try it out – so give us a reason to use it and we will give you a really special hire rate as our first client 😀.
 
The Banksia Centre is really buzzing – volleyball filled the centre over the long weekend – pickleball players are here four days a week, table tennis is booming, netball continues to grow and U3A programs continue to expand – life is good.
