Making your concert or show shine bright.
Show planning, administration and management can be daunting. We take the pressure off by assigning your own dedicated Event Planner who will guide you through all stages and aspects of your show planning and execution. They will be your main point of contact to provide ideas, answer questions and keep things moving.
Your show deserves the best, most experienced minds to make it a success. We partner with some of the best people in the entertainment industry to deliver exhilarating experiences for both the talent and crowd. Our in-house technology team can provide creative solutions or work directly with your suppliers to increase opportunities. This includes sourcing the latest technical innovations for merchandising and promotional activities.
With onsite accommodation, dining, ample parking, public transport and drop-off points around the venue, getting to and from your event is absolutely effortless. Overlooking the Yarra River in the centre of Melbourne’s vibrant South Wharf, MCEC is the perfect destination for every type of event from school concerts to sporting events and international music performances.
Your show, international music act, concert, live music event, school concert or sporting event deserves a full house. The MCEC events team can assist you to shape pre-event promotion through our onsite signage and digital communications to maximise your event promotion and ticket sales.
Our concert and show options are flexible and good for business - unlike other venues we don’t take any commissions on merchandise or ticket sales and you’re also able to choose your own ticketing provider. Your vision can also be extended to the setup of your merchandise stand, VIP zones and Box Office.
Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre’s (MCEC) Floorplans and Space Capacities Guide provides an overview of all spaces within the venue. Your Account Manager will help you to find the right spaces for the main event.
