Cockle Bay Rooms
Dockside is a purpose built convention centre, architecturally designed and built with flexibility in mind. The impressive space can be divided into as many as six function or break-out rooms and allows the switch between daylight and darkness at the touch of a button.
At Dockside, floor to ceiling windows mean you're welcomed by a flood of natural light. You can enjoy the fabulous views from inside, or relax with morning tea or afternoon cocktails on the covered, wrap-around balcony.
You also have leading edge audio, visual and communications technology at your fingertips, with Impact AV our onsite audio visual company.
