The District Council of Yankalilla is delighted to announce a brand-new way for community members to hire the Yankalilla Cultural Centre and Library: Meeting Room and Hall. All bookings for these spaces will now be made through the user-friendly online booking platform, SpacetoCo.

The District Council of Yankalilla understands the importance of providing accessible and user-friendly services to the community.  In an effort to create a smooth user experience and to activate these wonderful new or upgraded spaces, we partnered with SpacetoCo to ensure community members and groups can easily find venues, check room capacity and availability information and hire fees.  This online platform will streamline the booking process, making it easier for individuals and groups to secure community spaces for their events and activities.

To celebrate this exciting development and to ensure the spaces get maximum exposure, use and activation, all bookings made through SpacetoCo in 2023 will be completely fee-free!!  To take advantage of this offer, simply use the discount code FREE2023 when making your booking through the website.

Community members interested in making a booking are encouraged to visit SpacetoCo and search for Yankalilla. On the platform, you will find detailed terms and conditions, as well as a straightforward booking application process. Additional information about the booking procedure can also be found on the Council’s own website.

CEO Nathan Cunningham expressed his enthusiasm for the introduction of the online booking platform, stating, "We are thrilled to offer our community a user-friendly interface to help activate the Council-owned community facilities. With thanks to SpacetoCo, we can now provide a modern yet simple and streamlined customer interface while also improving efficiencies in the administration of our bookable spaces."

SpacetoCo, a renowned web platform for short-term space rentals, was founded in 2017 with the goal of connecting people with available spaces in their vicinity. By utilising this platform, the District Council of Yankalilla is embracing the future of community space rentals, facilitating flexibility and empowering community engagement.

The redeveloped Yankalilla Cultural Centre and Library opened to the public on 20 January 2023, following the completion of an exciting, state-of-the-art library addition and upgrade. We are thrilled to witness the return of programs and events to the Centre, providing the community with a vibrant hub for engagement and enrichment.

From the new spaces available for booking, the refurbished Meeting Room can accommodate up to 30 people and features a flexible table and chair configuration allowing for both row seating and workshop table layouts. A mounted smart screen with HDMI connectivity is available for groups to connect their device. The Meeting room is the perfect space for workshops, training sessions and community group gatherings and discussions.

The Hall is suitable for larger gatherings of up to 60 people and also offers a flexible table and chair configuration. This space can be adjusted to suit your specific needs with the ability to store away tables and chairs to create a completely usable area. Whilst no specific technology has been set up in the Hall currently, user feedback will help Council to understand the needs going forward. The Halls’ versatility allows it to accommodate various event types, including fitness classes, art exhibitions, public meetings and workshops.

For bookings outside Library opening hours, an access card will be issued by the Library for collection 24 hours prior to the booking. The Library's opening hours can be found on our website.
