City of Melville EcoHub - Top Level

The City of Melville EcoHub is a community space located within the Piney Lakes Reserve in City of Melville. Surrounded by nature with easy access to nature trails we offer a uniquely tranquil and beautiful space. EcoHub is exclusively focused on providing space and resources to groups dedicated to environment, sustainability and First Nations People. To ensure that our venue remains dedicated to this purpose we may decline booking inquiries that do not align with these principles.

Hire of the top level includes 2 rooms; the Binjar Room and the Marlak Room.

The top level features two large room, veranda and venue facilities. Binjar room is a large theatre style space that can accommodate up to 60 people seated theatre style or 75 standing. Marlak room can accommodate 85 people for standing or interactive events and up to 60 people seated theatre style. Additionally there is a large shaded veranda offering beautiful views of the EcoHub garden, Piney Lakes Community Garden and surrounding Piney Lakes Reserve. Venue facilities such as reception/foyer, kitchen and restrooms are located on the top level.

EcoHub offers access to a shared kitchen and each room is equipped with a tea trolley, urn, black tea, and instant coffee for your convenience. We kindly request that you bring your own milk and consumables. To promote sustainability and reduce waste, we offer a free catering kit to hirers. This kit includes serving ware, cutlery, plates, and cups. We encourage you to make use of this kit and refrain from using disposable items. If you require a substantial amount of catering equipment, please notify us in advance so that we can accommodate your needs accordingly.

EcoHub does not provide direct servicing, but is generally staffed by dedicated personnel from 8am – 5pm on weekdays. Whilst their main focus is on maintaining the facility, they can offer limited assistance during those hours. For event specific arrangements we recommend discussing your needs in advance.

All new hirers must arrive 15 minutes prior to their booking time to undergo a brief induction. If your booking falls outside normal office hours an induction will need to be scheduled with staff.
