i like the fed square idea :)

i have also seen a really good place at melb uni that i went for an italian poetry comp. not sure how to book it or if its limited to melb uni students, but it was really cool!
its a really big room with a stage, and the roof has a cube-like pattern :)

just puuting the idea out there..
ill try find a pic of the venue

the place is called: 'Spot Theatre'
 
outdoor venue and can be canceled ? it will be risky for the competitor who not live in Melbourne..

Anyway, just a question, is it confirmed to be 1-2 September ?

How about the BMW Edge at Federation Square?

It's an indoor theatre that seats around 260 people. It has two stage areas. This would cost about $1,600 per day.

Seems unnecessarily big/expensive for a cubing competition... to cover it with registration would be $75+/competitor, which for most people isn't really worth it for a cubing competition. Wouldn't it be better to find a smaller, cheaper venue that had a more practical layout for a cubing competition (eg. a more open area with tables that have chairs around them?)
 
On-topic: BMW Edge isn't available on the 1st and 2nd of September. So Federation Square is pretty much out...

Sponsorship isn't confirmed at this point.

Other venue suggestions:
  • High Point ($3,000 unless The GPT Group let us use it for free like at MC)
  • Melbourne Museum
  • ?

Like I said before: "There might be some type of school hall we can use?"

Tim, I think we should go Melbourne Museum unless Highpoint is for free... we have really not many options.

That's exactly what we don't want to use for Nationals.

We could still do MC-Nationals againt, but an improved version.
That means that we have actual barriers to seperate the whole competition, including the part where we have our bags and stuff. Everything else was fine imo, i liked last years Nationals, besides that strangers were sitting next to my bag.
Don't try to argue against MC with the clock.
