What conference organisers say about Fortress

"We booked out the Arena & Arcade all customised for our teams needs. Fortress went above and beyond for our team. Thank you for making us feel so special”

"We had a company team event here (150 people). Fortress helped us create a really fun afternoon"

“Thanks so much for all of your help and bending over backwards to make things happen for us. From the floor staff to the AV team, everything ran really smoothly"

"Thanks so much for all of your help and support that you provided in the lead up to the event. The entire Fortress team were super helpful and awesome"

The space is fantastic. Everyone had a really great time and this morning we received a lot of positive feedback from our team members.

The event went really well! Everyone was blown away by the conference portion of the day and how seamlessly it went. Our team also loved the pac man tournament and it was a great point of difference from our normal events.
