Venue Hire
Venue Hire Information
Goolugatup Heathcote offers venues for hire within a range of historic buildings nestled among manicured gardens with picturesque surrounds and Swan River views.
​
With spectacular scenery, landscaped grounds, a unique children’s playground and barbeque facilities, our venues make ideal spaces for a range of events, including small group meetings, seminars, workshops and small functions.
​
We have recently partnered with the SpacetoCo team to bring our booking process online. As part of this exciting initiative, you can now book all of our Spaces directly here!
SpacetoCo is an online marketplace that allows you to share and book space by the hour. You might have seen the SpacetoCo team recently on Shark Tank! They’ve been actively engaging with many communities and city councils to share some of Perth’s most beautiful spaces on their booking platform.
If you have any questions about using SpacetoCo, please reach out to them using the little yellow circle at the bottom right of their website.

Wedding Ceremonies
Overlooking the spectacular Swan River in Applecross, Goolugatup Heathcote is a unique site offering uninterrupted views of the city and is set among beautifully restored heritage buildings and landscaped gardens, making it perfect for your special day.
​
Wedding Ceremonies are the only booking that we have at Goolugatup Heathcote reserve. A maximum of up to 100 guests is permitted, but we recommend 60-80 guests. This is a busy location, which can sometimes make parking difficult. There is very limited shelter at Goolugatup Heathcote Reserve, so we recommend hiring a building as backup for your ceremony, in the unfortunate case of bad weather.
