Venue Tours at the Shoalhaven Entertainment Centre

Enjoy an exclusive and insightful tour of a world-class multi-purpose facility with a venue tour of the Shoalhaven Entertainment Centre!

With an industry professional as your guide, unveil the secrets of the stage and peek into a world only performers and backstage crew get to see. 

Plus, visit all the spaces that enable the Centre to host 900+ concert goers, intimate performances, gala dinners and more.

You will learn about the size, scale, and style of all the available spaces, the range of seating configurations, and about all the types of events the Shoalhaven’s premier performing arts venue can host. This is ideal for anyone interested in hosting their own event at the Centre, the avid performing arts lover who is keen to pull back the curtain, or any local interested in understanding the public building, the services offered and role the Centre plays in the community.  

After the tour, you will be treated to a tea/coffee and cake from Encore Café
