What to look for in a multi-day conference venue in Broome

Choosing the right venue for your conference is crucial. It sets the entire tone for your event; it ensures a comfortable time for your guests, helps to keep them engaged, and drives the flow of the whole event.

Let’s take a look at how to choose the right Broome conference venue for your multi-day event.

Find the ideal conference setting

The right conference setting makes all the difference in the energy and engagement for your event, particularly when it’s held over multiple days.

Lightless, boring rooms sap energy and attention. But at the other end of the scale, you don’t want to go over the top.

You need balance.

At Mangrove Hotel, our available conference rooms strike the perfect balance between relaxed and professional. We have a range of indoor and outdoor spaces available, set up to compliment your event, each with their own picturesque Indian Ocean backdrop.

They feature state-of-the-art amenities, and you can comfortably accommodate groups anywhere from 10 to 160 guests.

Looking for something a bit different? We also have two outdoor venues available for larger groups, which allow your guests to soak up the lush greenery and the sun while ensuring your conference stays on track.

Evaluate your function room options

Once you’ve chosen your venue, you then need to take stock of the function rooms available. Do they provide the necessary space, amenities, and features?

The three function rooms at Mangrove Hotel are designed for effortless conference hosting.

The Durack Room is our largest option, and can comfortably hold up to 120 guests.

Additional services can make all the difference

A conference shouldn’t be just another conference. You want it to be unique. So as well as the number of guests, location, and the topics you cover, it’s important that you can access those specific services that support your event in running smoothly.

At the Mangrove Hotel, we provide a range of add-ons to help you make the most of your event.

Full-service equipment hire

Our comprehensive equipment hire ensures that your AV works without a hitch. Whether it’s a data projector, high quality PA system, video conferencing facilities, or a good old-fashioned flip chart, stand, and markers, we’ve got you covered.

Mouthwatering culinary options

Let’s be honest: one of the big things that people remember about a conference is the catering.

So whether you’re doing a half-day, a full-day event, or a multi-day conference, make sure your guests have a menu that they look forward to.

We provide a range of culinary options for you and your guests.

Enjoy a mixture of sweet and savoury pastries for your coffee breaks, from classic Danish pastries and muffins, to banana bread with cinnamon butter, Portuguese custard tarts, or smoked ham, cheddar, and sun-dried tomato croissants, all provided by our preferred local suppliers.

With our working lunches you can choose the cuisine that fits. From mouthwatering club sandwiches or smoked salmon bagels, flavoursome chicken banh mi or Japanese katsu sando, all with fresh side salads and complementary soft drink options.

Or opt for the buffet. Your guests will enjoy a selection of fresh meal options, both hot and cold, showcasing delicious WA produce and prepared with a distinct Broome twist.

Broome accommodation where you can truly relax

If you’re planning a multi-day function, your guests don’t want to go far when the day is finished. So at the Mangrove Hotel, as well as your conference venue, we also provide a range of accommodation options for your guests.

We tailor conference packages designed to ensure that your guests get the rest they need in between full days.

Partner this with breakfast packages to ensure they’re ready to go when they arrive at the conference, along with free parking, guest laundry, a fully-equipped in-house gym, and two swimming pools to relax in after a long day of meetings, it doesn’t get better than this.
