Sydney Home Show 2022 | Bean Bag Event Loungers

By Uncategorized

Event organiser (EEA) initially contacted beanbaghire about setting up a home cinema zone with soft furniture at the event with a co-sponsor – which was then switched to a more general ambient relaxation zone including a cafe & food stall nearby. Bean Bag Event Loungers was available for everyone to rest and chill out as they went around for the whole day.

This zone was created as a rest & respite area with greenery and was enjoyed throughout the entire show.

“The feedback has been amazing from our guests and exhibitors – the flow of people has been constant and this really brought an awkward area of the ICC to life – helping traffic to nearby stalls” – Maridza Riccioni (Exhibitions & Events Australia)

Outdoor Events Are Back In!

By Uncategorized No Comments

Attention Melbourne Events managers: This great city is open again for (covid-safe) business! Outdoor events are back in Victoria and didn’t we miss them in 2020? 

Melbourne, and the rest of Victoria for that matter, are experiencing a lag in the easing of Covid restrictions compared to all other states in Australia. However there was some well overdue good news on October 24th when the Victorian government announced tentative guidelines that allow for events to come back for summer. A collective wave of positivity was felt throughout the frustrated Melbourne Events Industry and beanbaghire by ambient lounge is here to help you get your event groove back.

Metropolitan Melbourne is now on the ‘3rd Step’ of the coronavirus roadmap for reopening. There are 5 steps in this roadmap — the last one being ‘COVID Normal,’ where all businesses and venues are fully open with a COVIDSafe Plan and without any restrictions on the number of people allowed at any venue. 

Crucially,  under the ‘Third Step’  Melbourne is officially moving from “stay home at all costs” to a “stay safe mantra.” This means that there will be no more restrictions on the reasons to leave home and fewer restrictions on public gatherings & events.

Outdoor entertainment events are finally given a semi-green light – from being totally closed to ‘Heavily Restricted & regulated.’ This entails Melbourne community venues being able to operate but at a limited capacity. Unfortunately, Melbourne indoor events remain banned but could be allowed to open in December. This is pending Melbourne rolling covid 14-day average being  low enough to move into the next step phase, the ‘Last Step.’ Barring a third wave, we can certainly expect metropolitan Melbourne to be fully open under new normal rules post Christmas – and in the peak event season of January.

So what’s permitted in terms of events right now? Here’s a summary of specific event guidelines – primarily seated outdoor spaces with fixed or allocated seated spaces/zones:

  • Outdoors spaces can have 10 people per group/cluster
  • Groups must be 1.5 metres apart from each other and properly seated
  • If it’s fixed seating, patron cap would be at 50 people or 25% of the venue’s seat capacity, (whichever is lower)
  • If it’s not fixed seating but with allocated seated spaces/zones, density quotient and maximum of 50 persons only within the venue 

COVID-Safe Guidelines for Melbourne Outdoor Entertainment Venues

So what are the new rules? It’s vital for Melbourne event managers to comply with government  guidelines for their kinds of business. This could apply to you and your staff. 

Here are the non-negotiable COVID-safe principles for ann business in Melbourne:

  • Ensure physical distancing (1.5 metres)
  • Wear a face mask at all times
  • Practice good hygiene
  • Keep good records and act quickly if staff become unwell 
  • Avoid interactions in close spaces
  • Create workforce bubbles

As of the moment, there have been no specific rules and/or instructions as to the types of events that are allowed (e.g. concerts, company events, etc) and how many people will they be able to accommodate. Surely, there will be more guidelines to be released in the coming days but knowing these guidelines can serve as the groundwork on how you’ll be able to move forward with your event planning for Melbourne.

Fun Things To Do with the Crew during Winter

By Featured, Lifestyle, Party, Uncategorized No Comments

Winter is Coming to Oz -terros! And with it comes major boredom… For some…

Aussies love the sun and fun and though winter is “no sun” it’s definitely not “no fun”! Activities are happening around Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide. Just look around Twitter for these winter events or you could make your winter an all-chill season with these fun few suggestions:

Have an Indoor Winter Movie Festival

Got a big crib or large covered backyard terrace? Make a winter festival of it. Get your friends in your home, lounging in a bean bag, sipping hot chocolate and staying inside the comfort of a cover while watching cool, summer movies with characters basking in the sun, surfing the sea and drinking summer punches. (Oh yeah, you’ll love winter more.)

Be a BIG-TIME Chilled out Slacker that parties at home

And when you’d have enough of the movies… And you can’t help not to move around and give-in to hibernation mode, have another party! Make it ugly, exciting and totally lazy! Pull out your old, worn-out, passed-on sweater or Onesies and just hang out with a cool crew of friends. Drink beer, eat beer (that’s possible) and even bathe in beer- literally enjoy chilling!, crank up the fire, lounge out in a bean bag, enjoy a barbie… You’ll wish it’s an all-day everyday event…

Get out to the mountains and get amongst the snow first thing in the morning

Go to Mt Buller or Thredbo. You’d carry in your bean bags up the mountain, if you could … you know they are snow-proof too.

Stop being lame in the rain, actually go to Winter Sports events or organize one.

It’s time to go Ski, Ice Skate or Rugby and Football games. Or be a manager of your own small soccer team- neighborhood kids will love you! Schedule tournaments for the team and organize gathering for soccer parents with some Rock and Roll themed party with cool waterproof bean bags.

Date one or a group of Oenophiles/wine lovers (real or not) and lush in food and wine

It’s a brilliant time of the year to sneak out to our scenic wineries and rediscover some great-tasting Aussie wines. Choose to get knotted in the old vines of Hunter Valley, Yarra Valley, Margaret River, Barossa Valley or Noosa.. Get romantic with your special one while loading up together on gourmet foods and a few top drops. Or make it less lovey by hanging with a random crew of all wine lovers (or pretending to be). So enjoy a boozed up bus ride, tour around, veg out later in a marquee in the backyard, get warm with heaters and cozy with our bean bags, just perfect in snuggling and appreciating the flavors of the Aussie winter wine lifestyle

That’s how you have fun in the freeze! And there’s more exciting things that you can do, just don’t forget to hire our designer bean bags for all the creative things you can think of doing this winter! Call us on 1300 707 121 or email info@beanbaghire.com.au
