General Conditions of Hire

For all hire across Hornsby Shire Council’s network of Community Venues, General Conditions of Hire exist to ensure the public and the venues are kept safe and secure.

The General Conditions of Hire Community Venues cover important issues such as:

  • Hirer responsibilities
  • Alcohol consumption in public halls
  • Public Liability Insurance requirements
  • High risk functions
  • Cancellation terms

Prior to booking a venue, it is essential to read the General Conditions of Hire Community Venues and understand. If you have any questions regarding the General Conditions of Hire, please contact the Venue Management Team on vmt@hornsby.nsw.gov.au or 9847 6050.

Please note:

  • Some venues have AV equipment installed, and microphones available for use. If these are not operating at time of hire there will be no reduction to fees.
  • In the event of an extreme emergency 000 should be called in the first instance. Should there be an electrical fault or alike due to the hirers function within the venue, associated fees will be invoiced to the hirer.
