Community Events 
Kingston Council has boosted their commitment to registered not-for-profit organisations by offering affordable and convenient venue hire at Kingston City Hall (KCH).
Important changes have been made to the conditions of hire at KCH, specifically aimed at helping registered not-for-profit organisations to host community and cultural events.
A generous venue hire discount of 80% will be offered for registered not-for-profit organisations for hire of the Grand Hall and Banquet Room on weekends as well as weekdays. This discount is for venue hire only and excludes the cost of additional services for the event, such as ticketing, catering, equipment, technical support and security.
Groups wanting to organise catering for their event can now source their own registered caterer. Caterers requesting to operate at KCH are to comply with specific food hygiene and licensing procedures.
While security services will continue to be a condition of hire at KCH for some events, hirers may source and supply their own registered security services. Security guidelines must be met before an event can take place.
"We wish to extend our heartfelt thanks and gratitude toward all your staff. When our workload for the event seemed overwhelming to us - we were assured all would go well and you kept us inspired and confident. Your staff helped us every step of the way through this journey - and we will be eternally grateful..." Robert & Barbara Ah Kuoi, Samoa Tsunami Appeal, Kingston City Hall.
