Where we work

Australia-wide, and well beyond it.

A capital-city conference floor, a wine-country offsite, an island incentive that gives delegates something to remember. We source in all of them, and we can tell you which properties suit which kind of event.

The process

A few minutes of yours.
The rest is ours.

  1. You · day one

    You tell us about your event

    Dates, delegate numbers, where you would like to be and roughly what you have to spend. Use the form or call and talk it through, whichever is easier for you.

  2. Us · the next 48 hours

    We go looking

    We check what is really available across the venues that suit your brief, including rooms that never show as free online, then negotiate rates and inclusions on your behalf.

  3. You · hour 48

    You compare real options

    You have a shortlist you can compare. Rates, inclusions, capacities and the trade-offs between them, set out side by side.

  4. Us · through to the day

    We confirm and stay with it

    We lock in the rate, handle the contract detail and coordinate accommodation and suppliers through to the day. The decisions stay yours throughout.

Why organisers use us

We would rather send you a handful of venues we can vouch for than a list you have to work through.

Doing it yourself means chasing availability, paying the published rate and reconciling quotes across your inbox. With us, one brief goes to a team that has walked the rooms, knows which ones work for what, and can negotiate rates and inclusions that never appear online. You get a shortlist within 48 hours, and a person to talk it through with.

The people

The same small team, from first call to final invoice.

A booking site shows you what is listed. We know what is actually available, which is how a venue that is "fully booked" finds you a room, and how a standard rate quietly becomes a better one.

In their words
I have been a loyal CVBS client for over 11 years, taking them with me from company to company because, quite simply, no one does it better. All I need to do is provide a brief on the tone and purpose of the meeting and they come back with options that are always spot on.
Amy BousamraExecutive Assistant, Inghams Group
Having worked with CVBS for over two decades, I consistently recommend them to colleagues, friends, and contacts. The team handles projects of any scale with true expertise, saving you countless hours. Whether it’s a local, interstate or international incentive, conference or event, Karen and the team utilise their extensive network, creative ideas, and insightful guidance to ensure they locate the ideal venue and destination every time. From taking the initial brief and presenting tailored choices to securing quotes, managing venue bookings, and handling supplier contracts, they oversee every detail. CVBS truly sets the standard for exceptional service through regular communication and an approach focused on building real relationships rather than just managing databases. Their integrity, swift communication, and unwavering professionalism have saved my sanity time and again. I cannot recommend their first-class services highly enough!
