Australia’s Largest $135M Amphitheatre

The growing suburb of Morisset, Lake Macquarie, is on the verge of holding 30,000 punters thanks to the approval of a new music venue in the region. The new venue will have built-for-purpose staging and rigging, making it a dream outdoor music venue.

The event site is a $135 million development by the Cedar Mill Group at the old Morisset golf course. The shell/half-dome stage centrepiece looks to rival Newcastle’s McDonald Jones Stadium.

NBN News boasts this new venue has the punter in mind providing great audio/visual from wherever you view it, and just 500 metres from the Morisset train station, with proximity to the M1 another positive. NBN News reports that the Cedar Mill Group is looking to hire 500 people for the venue’s big shows, with music promoters already reportedly looking to book their acts for late 2025.

NBN News isn’t the first media organisation to cover the new venue, with The Music Network reporting that the Lake Macquarie City Council greenlit the space in February 2022. Check out the NBN News report here. Check out The Music Network story here.

In a statement, Cedar Mill Group added, “Permanent performance shells are acoustical, high-tech sound shell structures designed to improve the sound and clarity of performances, enhancing both the performers and patrons’ experience.” In Australia alone, we already have permanent outdoor pavilions such as Melbourne’s Sidney Myer Music Bowl and Riverstage in Brisbane, both beloved by international and local artists.

The new venue in Morisset is set to enhance the state’s economic, cultural and community benefits by hosting gigs, festivals, movie screenings, community events and performing arts shows.
