Newcastle Condition Audit for Venues NSW

BSE has proudly worked with Venues NSW for the past several years. Our NSW team has had the pleasure of working on iconic venues such as the Sydney Cricket Ground, Allianz Stadium, CommBank Stadium, and WIN Stadium.

 

Our latest engagement with Venues NSW brought us to Newcastle. BSE was tasked with conducting comprehensive Condition Audits of existing building services installations at McDonald Jones Stadium and the Newcastle Entertainment Centre and Showground. These audits are essential for the assessing the current state of plant and equipment, establishing a risk profile, and determining the remaining lifespan of critical assets.

 

The team also highlighted necessary rectification works, providing clear commentary on compliance issues and identifying potential risks. This enables Venues NSW to make informed decisions regarding maintenance planning and budget allocation for the next 5 years. This proactive approach helps ensure that the venues remain operational and safe for all users. The audit covered the electrical, mechanical, fire protection, and hydraulics building services.

 

The McDonald Jones Stadium is located the heart of Newcastle and is a hub for sports and entertainment. Home to the Newcastle Knights in the NRL and the Newcastle Jets in the A-League, it hosts exhilarating matches that bring together passionate local fans. Beyond sports, the stadium welcomes major concerts and events, with Elton John, Paul McCartney, and Pink having performed at the venue. Given its prominence, maintaining the safety and reliability of the stadium’s building services is paramount.

 

Equally important, the Newcastle Showground which houses Newcastle Entertainment Centre serves as a versatile venue for concerts, exhibitions, and sporting events. Over the years, it has hosted numerous renowned artists such as Celine Dion, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and Taylor Swift to name a few. With its ability to adapt to various events and accommodate large audiences, the centre is a cultural cornerstone in the region.

 

BSE is pleased to support the safety and sustainability of these significant venues. Our work helps Venues NSW ensure that the high-quality experiences that McDonald Jones Stadium and the Newcastle Entertainment Centre and Showground have to offer will be enjoyed for years to come.
