the shores(ex woolshed) west beach - best new venue.

after doing a couple of shows here id have to say this is the best venue for many different events. at this stage we can omnly stay open til midnight but the areas and position of this venue is simply incredible..
if you havent had the chance to suss out the beachside masterpiece you have another chance..
stardust summer sound festival will be held there.
all styles of dance music will be covered and major acts will be in attendance..

the venue has a huge capacity... the main room is awesome.. 2000 people huge stage area, plenty of seating and lounge areas, big bar, movie theatre to the side, then the front area also has outdoor decking for 100 people. the outdoor area has again capacity for another 1500 people with a 2 second walk to the beach, which is actually as private as you can get!

its the closet thing we have to ibiza and certainly better than most comparable interstate beachside venues.

finally we have something new so come check it out, soon we will be having it open every sunday during the day as a chiller thing than stardust and opening a really cool pizza bar out there too.. a high recommendation...

I am very much looking forward to my first experience of this fantastic venue.

I remember it being talked about almost a year ago for last years Strange Days so it's great to see the hard work finally coming to fruition! 8-)

Last I heard clubs are not only open but just starting to get good around 12. Wink

By the sound of it Stardust will be worth going to just for cheap entry to the "official' afterparties afterwards! 8-)

Yeah i loved that place! Close to the water, but no sand blowing in, great indoor stage and dancefloor, excellent place to have something.
The midday to midnight is OK, if it went say, till, ohhhh 7am or so might be better Stick Out Tongue But if restrictions for sound apply, you somewhat have to expect it. Just do what everyone did at Pokerflat. Head on the Minke afterwards....or another discerning club/venue.

agreed!! the shores is a wicked summer venue!!

sitting out under the verandah having a quiet beer whilst listening to some funky house is a great way to warm up the night!! Smilie

the main area is tres cool...

I went there about 2 weeks ago for Pokerflat... Big Grin

The venue is excellent! Perfect for the summertime, being so close to the beach... Nice to go cool down a bit and go for a walk later in the night... And the outside grassed area is a great way to kick off the evening, sipping a beer or Red Bull with your mates... Smilie

It was so lovely and relaxed inside it felt like I was at a private party at somebody's shack by the beach... You forget for a while that you're about 5 minutes from the city and opposite the airport! tongue

I'm definitely planning to go there again - loved it!!! Super Grin
