Reviews
Absolutely fabulous venue but thr catering was very poor in my opinion. 3 day conference and the elderly lady walking round with a sour look on her face took the cake. Looked miserable I smiled and said hello a few times and no response lol
Maybe she didn't like so many blackfellas there in the venue.
Never had tea or coffee out long enough as soon as morning tea was over it was snapped up geez its only water.
Blueberry almond cake was frozen and soooo dry. Honestly I just felt like it was over bearing service waiting to the second to pull off plastic like we were vultures.
I give three stars for the spectacular venue. Staff could barely smile except the young guys were friendly the rest were rude as and cold as ice.
Conference hall located next to the beach. Has several meeting halls equipped with theater seating. There is a cafeteria inside. This place is perfect for large-scale gatherings. Exiting the building, we will be treated to an interesting view of the seaside which has water play facilities for children and adults.
My first experience here was the Midnight Oil concert, the band performed incredibly well, the music was perfect and Peter Garrets singing was immaculate. What upset me however was the behaviour of everyone around us. My partner and I paid for the most expensive tickets to sit at the front row, but everyone from the back row started coming to the front and blocked our view. What was the point of having a price difference when everyone just breaks the rules anyways? There was a woman in a wheelchair that paid to sit at the front row and she was begging people to move so that she could see the performance, yet no-one moved. Everyone behaved like such animals. Drunk people were clumsily falling ontop of us, I couldn't believe what was happening. The people next to us got fed up and walked out, we were about to leave aswell, but then we decided to sit all the way at the back where there were hundreds of empty seats. Although we were so far away, we could still hear the music perfectly well. The stage was still visible however I will never make the mistake of sitting at the front row, or even just at the front section in general ever again.
When I came a second time to see Crowded House, I sat all the way at the very back of the centre and it was worth it. Seeing everyone scramble to the front was honestly irritating to watch. There should be some kind of warning when purchasing tickets that this behaviour will occur, because this is the type of behaviour you see at stand-up concerts. At least the Darwin Entertainment Centre has standards and implements rules that people actually respect.
The performance themselves here were fantastic, the audience not so much.
To anyone thinking of going to a concert here, unless you enjoy acting like an animal, then I suggest sitting all the way at the back.
A really great venue in Darwin. My one complaint is it can be very hard to park if you're not there super early.
Great facility, but the catering lets it down significantly. Particularly for anyone who has special dietary requirements. For those who were GF we got half a sandwich each. Vegans got no more than a salad. Tea and coffee was also only provided until 1pm. After that we were no longer permitted to use the urns 😢 …
Spacious easy access to watch live bands such as Midnight Oil.
Several Clean amenities reduce waiting.
Taxi and Uber friendly.
Located on the harbour close to cafes and restaurants and Darwin beach!
Limited food & drink options in centre so
We enjoyed delicious dinner at Snapper Rocks just 2 mins walk from convention centre.
Good location. Beautiful view. Very cool and clean inside.
Great venue in an excellent precinct for a holiday or a conference. If the flights to Darwin were more sane I’d say this was an excellent place to have a vacation.
