The Hume Palliative Care Consultancy Team used the Wangaratta Performing Arts Centre in May 2011 as a venue for our “Living & Dying Well” event. The team at WPAC were incredibly professional and helpful. They assisted us with ticketing, catering, advertising, technical assistance and the many aspects of promotion. The success of our event was beyond our expectations and was due in no small part to their wonderful organisational skills and expertise. Nothing was too much trouble. WPAC staff provided suggestions and advice along the way in order to make our event as successful as possible. We would have no hesitation in recommending this venue to any group wishing to have a stress free event.
