Gosford RSL Club has marked its calendar in May for the opening of The Gallery, a new multifunctional conference and event centre.
The Gallery will feature five event spaces suitable for a range of occasions including conferences, exhibitions, weddings and more.
“With an impressive capacity of 600-plus, [The Gallery] introduces a whole new level of grandeur that has never been witness on the Central Coast before,” said Alyssa Speering, who recently joined the Gosford RSL management team as conference and events manager.
“Our aim is to revolutionise the local business landscape while still catering to our beloved community and businesses. Thanks to the incredibly versatile design of the spaces, we have the freedom to make this vision come to life.”
The Gallery has been built on the top level of the new three-storey $45 million Gosford RSL Club, which is earmarked to open in March. Joining The Gallery on the second floor will be a sports bar and an onsite Oak Haven brewery.
The first floor will contain a cafe, lounge, bar, multiple indoor and outdoor dining options, kids’ play area and teen retreat. Meanwhile, a distinctive porte-cochere entry, RSL museum and reception servicing both the RSL and the adjoining motel will be located on the ground floor.
The upgrade has been designed by WMK Architecture while construction is being carried out by local contractor North Construction and Building.
Gosford RSL Club Group has been operating since 1960, has about 25,000 members, consists of Gosford RSL Club, The Galaxy Motel and the Ashwood Motel, and employs more than 130 staff.
Elsewhere in NSW, Revesby Workers’ Club has said the redevelopment of its events and function centre is now in full swing.
Commencing in January, the major overhaul of the club’s Whitlam Theatre is the first in more than 20 years and will see the installation of new technology, modern and flexible facilities, and a layout reconfiguration to maximise space.
The new-look Whitlam Theatre is slated to be completed by October.
