Your Visit

As Bellingen's cultural hub, the Memorial Hall welcomes individual and group organisers to run classes, workshops, rehearsals and performances.

Each event host brings their individual personality to bear on the visitor experience. What follows is a guide to venue access and facilities that remain consistent no matter which organisation is hosting your event.

How to book

Ticket links for events are listed on our website under What's On.

  • Please note that tickets are sold by the organiser (host) of each show.
  • Consequently, ticket costs, concessions, refund and exchange policies, will be event specific.
  • Hosts set ticketing policies on their respective ticket portals.

Seating

Unless otherwise advised by your host, seats are sold as General Admission, ie. not numbered.

Getting there & parking

Our address is 32 Hyde Street, Bellingen NSW 2454.

  • There is a loading bay in front of the venue on Hyde Street.
  • A large carpark is located at the rear of the venue on Creek Lane.

Accessibility

Bellingen Memorial Hall works with event hosts to ensure performances are accessible to all. Please contact us to discuss your specific needs so we can ensure your comfort and enjoyment.

  • All areas of the venue are accessible for wheelchairs.
  • The two disabled car parking spaces at the rear of the venue are adjacent to the lift (please contact your host in advance to access the lift).
  • There is flat ramp access from Hyde St along the side of the building. Both venues are fitted with a 'T switch' hearing aid induction loop.
  • Companion card holder tickets are allocated at the discretion of the host. Please contact the ticket seller for details. You will need to present your Companion Card when collecting tickets. 

Lost & Found Property

Lost items

  • Any items lost by entrants to Bellingen Memorial Hall can be reported to staff at Council Chambers during opening hours or directly to the Venue Coordinator via email: Memorial.Hall@bellingen.nsw.gov.au
  • Council maintains a register of lost and found property.
  • Individuals will be contacted if an item is found matching the lost item's description.

Found items

Any items found at Bellingen Memorial Hall will be stored at Council Chambers and the Venue Coordinator will:

  • if cash is found, count the cash in the presence of the finder and record this in the lost and found register,
  • try to locate the owner by:
  1. checking the lost and found register to see whether it was previously reported as lost, or
  2. contact the owner, if the items have a name or other identifiable markings, or
  • where the owner cannot be immediately located, record items in the lost and found property register (unless it is determined to be of low value and disposed of immediately).

Owners will be required to provide proof of identity and, if necessary, a description of the item, before the property is returned. These details will be recorded in the lost and found property register.

Disposal of Found items

  • Found items with an estimated value of less than $10 may be disposed of immediately, and all other items will be disposed of after three months. Cash or items of significant monetary or sentimental value may be disposed of after six months.
  • Council will bear no responsibility for inaccurately estimating the value of a found item or for disposing of it at any time.
  • The Venue Coordinator will determine the appropriate method of disposal, which may include donation (eg. Vinnies), recycling, rubbish collection or other methods.
  • Items containing personal or confidential information will be securely destroyed or disposed of.
  • The lost and found property register will be updated with disposal details.
