The new MP District (Martin Place) has been formed along with 20 other Uptown Districts designed to reinvigorate greater Sydney’s nightlife. NSW Parliament is one of 11 diverse partner organisations working to deliver entertainment options in MP District, which is centred around the dynamic civic centre of Martin Place and extends its boundaries to George, King, Macquarie, Bent, and Bond Streets.    “Exciting plans are underway to create new weekend and after-work activities focusing on the best the area has to offer. With Theatre Royal Sydney and City Recital Hall in our patch, along with leading cultural institutions and world class restaurants like Strangers at NSW Parliament and Morena, expect diverse cultural experiences, sophisticated dining, and evening shows to be precinct highlights,” said Janson Hews, President of MP District.   Funded by the Office of the 24-Hour Economy NSW’s Uptown Accelerator Program, each of the districts are managed by local businesses and organisations within their boundaries. MP District partner organisations include: Business Sydney City Recital Hall 1 Elizabeth MUCHO - Centro 86 Museums of History NSW Parliament of NSW Renascence Group - Morena Restaurant State Library of New South Wales The Point* - The International Theatre Royal Sydney Tilley and Wills Hotels Verandah Precinct Cabana Bar Image: NSW Parliament House, view at night from Macquarie St

Versatility - This has to be the biggest key to unlocking revenue for today's attractions. The Alnwick Garden I feel has nailed this. We've been coming to the Gardens for over 15 years now and every visit offers us something different. Even with The Liliedorei, we've been a couple of times now and each time been very different - The Halloween installation was incredible and so well thought through (and Yes - I did this time manage to sit myself in the highest cage!). I also think we saw a sneak peak of what's to come at Christmas when we next visit (exciting!) The range of things happening at the gardens is as broad as it is innovative - from Networking Breakfasts to Weddings and everything in between (and everything driving revenues). Repurposing space, creating new inventory / revenue streams, or enhancing the existing experience to drive repeat business are key to adding to the bottom line. If you're an attraction looking for ideas on how to increase revenues, without the ability to just develop your site or attraction, I suggest you connect with Lauren St Hilaire and her team at The Gardens as they've really set the bar high. On a related note, ticketing systems should promote and not limit the opportunities to increase revenues - if you're finding challenges here then drop me a line and let's chat. #ticketing #innovation #attractionsuk #northumberland #northeast #heritageattractions #halloween

How do you make an office lobby feel like a holiday wonderland? Here’s how we brought the magic. This holiday season, we transformed a Cadillac Fairview lobby in downtown Toronto into an unforgettable celebration for tenants. 💡 Our Tips for Elevating Holiday Events in Any Space: 1️⃣ Interactive Entertainment: Stilt walkers, a saxophone player, and a roaming hoop performer kept guests engaged and delighted. 2️⃣ Creativity Over Tradition: Reimagine non-traditional spaces, like lobbies, into festive experiences that surprise and inspire. 3️⃣ Focus on Memorable Moments: The right mix of entertainment and ambiance creates lasting memories your guests will cherish. A huge thank you to the Huntresses Hailey Dawood and Vaish Sridhar for bringing this vision to life. #EventPlanning #HolidayEvents #CorporateEntertainment #TheIdeaHunter #EventDesign

Selecting the Perfect Venue for Memorable End-of-Life Celebrations ✅ Consider the Size and Amenities Make sure the location can comfortably accommodate your expected number of guests. It should have enough seating and facilities like restrooms. Also, check if it offers any special amenities that might be needed, such as audio-visual equipment for a memorial video or space for a reception. ✅ Think About the Environment Choose a setting that reflects the personality or wishes of the loved one. If they adored nature, an outdoor venue like a garden or park could be perfect. For someone who loved art, consider a local gallery. The environment should resonate with the person's life and passions. ✅ Plan for Convenience Look for a spot that’s easy to get to, with ample parking or nearby public transportation. If you have out-of-town guests, consider proximity to hotels or airports. A convenient location reduces stress for attendees and ensures more people can pay their respects without difficulty. #EndOfLifePlanning #TumbleweedTips #Tumbleweed #TumbleweedPlan #legacyplanning

There is opportunity for innovation in every industry. This is a nice article about the latest innovation we’ve brought to the Lodge.

The last few months, we’ve spent a lot of time on our blog talking about how MagnaTrack™ can help the fun keep going in your outdoor areas all year around, rain, snow or shine. https://lnkd.in/gvkJne6m We’ve talked about turning residential patios and pergolas into cozy spaces where you can host holiday parties. We’ve discussed how event venues can partner with us to continue hosting well into the fall. We’ve even talked about the best heaters a restaurant needs to keep their outdoor spaces comfortable for patrons all through winter. But there’s no getting around it, MagnaTrack and heaters are an investment for restauranteurs. And we’re not sure we’ve done a good enough job demonstrating that ROI. In this post, we fix that. We talk about why you should expand into outdoor spaces, what kind of questions you need to ask before you do so, and – most importantly – the ROI you can expect from making those changes. It's no small investment when a restaurant owner or general manager chooses to turn their outdoor space into additional seating. We understand how making that space winter-proof can seem even more daunting. But, with these numbers, we're confident you'll be excited to call us. So give this post a read, apply our ROI equation to your own space, and visit our site to learn more.
