Our Blog
Welcome to Backstage - our blog, taking you behind the scenes at the Convention Centre as we prepare for our many events.
Posted on Monday, 26 September 2011
This is a landmark year for the Centre, hosting the highest number of conventions and heading into our expansionary phase with our journey to deliver our much anticipated boutique expansion of our convention facilities. Completion of BCEC on Grey Street is scheduled for the end of this year.

Cooking for a different audience
Posted on Monday, 26 September 2011
Our second series of 'cooking with the community' has just wrapped up and I feel as though I have taken away more than the participants! The classes, held over four weeks at the Centre with our friends from West End Community House, teach the benefits of healthy eating, how to make smart shopping choices and affordable meals.

Our Food & Beverage Department ranks among the best in the world. Our catering credentials are strong - facts and our many awards back up that statement.
Our dedicated team of culinary artisans ranging from Michelin Star rated chefs to apprentice chefs who represented their country in the Bocuse d’Or constantly strive to improve our product through trends and innovation. We are preparing a new Menu Planner for BCEC on Grey St which will take our offering to another level – this will be influenced by our client's needs and ideas, sustainability and supporting QLD’s abundance of wonderful produce.
