∙∙The Lookout: A New Chapter Begins!∙∙

An iconic venue’s successful era at the V&A Waterfront is coming to an end, but an exciting new journey awaits!

With the redevelopment of the Granger Bay precinct in 2025, The Lookout will bid farewell to its current location, with deconstruction starting on 19 February 2025. But this isn’t goodbye – it’s a fresh start! We’re thrilled to announce that an equivalent 20m x 60m space has been relocated to Kenilworth Race Course, where we’ll continue to host unforgettable events with the same heart, passion, and breathtaking experiences. 🤝

Stay tuned for more updates – we can’t wait to welcome you to The Lookout’s new home!
