What happens when your conference venue also gives your delegates somewhere to stay,
somewhere to eat and a golf course outside the door?
In this episode of Meet The Peninsula Hosts, we head to Peppers Moonah Links Resort to
explore the idea of bringing accommodation, meetings, dining and experiences together in one
Peninsula destination.
We meet the people behind the resort and discover what goes into creating a seamless
experience for groups, from executive retreats and strategy days to larger conferences,
incentives and celebrations.
We talk about the importance of flexibility, the role of the event team and how the surrounding
golf course and Mornington Peninsula landscape can become part of the experience.
Because sometimes the biggest luxury for an event planner is knowing that everything, and
everyone, is in the one place.

What happens when you combine craft, local produce and a room full of people who are ready
to relax?
In this episode of Meet The Peninsula Hosts, we head to Tar Barrel Brewery & Distillery in
Mornington to discover the story behind this local destination and what makes it such an
engaging place for groups.
We talk about the people, the products and the experiences that bring the venue to life, from
tasting local beers and spirits to going behind the scenes and learning more about the brewing
and distilling process.
For event planners, it’s an opportunity to create something informal and memorable, while giving
delegates a genuine taste of the Mornington Peninsula.
It’s a conversation about local connection, hospitality and the value of giving people an
experience they can share, preferably with a tasting paddle in hand.

What happens when you take your team out of the office, and into the trees?
In this episode of Meet The Peninsula Hosts, we head to Enchanted Adventure in Arthurs Seat
to discover how adventure, nature and a little bit of play can transform a business event.
We meet the people behind the experience and explore why stepping outside the traditional
conference environment can encourage teams to connect in completely different ways.
With purpose-built facilities for conferences, workshops, seminars and training days, Enchanted
Adventure combines the practical requirements of a business event with plenty of opportunities
to get outside and experience the Peninsula.
It’s a conversation about creating experiences that surprise people, getting teams moving and
discovering what can happen when you give delegates permission to have a little fun.
Because sometimes the most productive part of the day happens when you stop sitting around
the table.

What happens when you take a business event somewhere that feels a world away from the
city?
In this episode of Meet The Peninsula Hosts, we head to Lancemore Lindenderry Red Hill to
explore the role that setting, food, wine and nature can play in creating a memorable business
event.
We meet the people behind the venue and talk about what goes into hosting everything from
intimate executive retreats to larger conferences and celebrations.
But this conversation goes beyond the event spaces. We explore the experience of arriving in
Red Hill, the importance of giving delegates room to breathe, and how local food, wine and
unique experiences can become part of the event itself.
From a fireside feast to exploring the region’s produce and landscapes, Lindenderry offers
plenty of ways to turn a business gathering into something people will genuinely remember.

What happens when the destination becomes part of the event?
In this episode of Meet The Peninsula Hosts, we head to InterContinental Sorrento to explore
why location can have such a powerful influence on the delegate experience.
We meet the people behind the hotel and discover how accommodation, dining, events and wellness can work together to create an experience that extends well beyond the meeting itself.
The conversation looks at what delegates experience from the moment they arrive, how the team works together behind the scenes, and why moving a conference or retreat from Melbourne’s CBD to a coastal destination can change the way people connect, think and recharge.
With Sorrento and the Mornington Peninsula providing the backdrop, this is a conversation about hospitality, collaboration and creating those memorable moments that happen outside the
agenda.

What if the best thing you could give your team was permission to slow down?
In this episode of Meet The Peninsula Hosts, we head to Peninsula Hot Springs to explore the growing role of wellness in business events, and what happens when a conference, retreat or
incentive experience is designed around connection and wellbeing.
We meet the people behind the destination and discover how geothermal bathing, nature, dining
and purpose-built event spaces can come together to create a very different kind of corporate
experience.
Rather than simply stepping away from work, we explore how a change of environment can help
people reconnect with themselves, their colleagues and the ideas they’re there to explore.
It’s a conversation about wellness, creativity and why sometimes stepping out of the boardroom
is exactly what a team needs.

What does whisky have to do with bringing people together?
Quite a lot, as it turns out.
In this episode of Meet The Peninsula Hosts, we visit Chief’s Son Distillery in Somerville to explore the stories, craft and people behind one of the Peninsula’s distinctive whisky experiences.
We talk about what happens when you invite a group behind the scenes, from discovering how whisky is made to tasting the finished product and hearing the stories that sit behind it.
For business events, it’s an opportunity to create something more memorable than a standard dinner or drinks, an experience that gives people something to discover together.
We meet the people behind the distillery and explore the importance of storytelling, craftsmanship and connection in creating experiences that stay with guests long after the event
has finished.

There are some places where the view becomes part of the experience, and at Arthurs Seat Eagle, you don’t have to wait until you arrive to see it.
In this episode of Meet The Peninsula Hosts, we take to the skies above the Mornington Peninsula to discover how a ride on the Eagle can become a memorable part of a business
event.
We explore the role of shared experiences in bringing teams together, and why giving delegates
something genuinely different to talk about can have a lasting impact.
From corporate groups and team outings to larger group experiences, we hear from the people who make the experience work and discover what happens when you take an event out of the meeting room and into the landscape.
It’s a conversation about connection, a little bit of adventure, and seeing the Mornington Peninsula from an entirely different perspective.

Can a brewery be the perfect place for a corporate event?
In this episode of Meet The Peninsula Hosts, we head to Jetty Road Brewery in Dromana to meet the people creating a relaxed, welcoming environment where good food, local beer and genuine conversation come together.
We explore what makes a brewery work as an event space and why taking a team somewhere
that feels less formal can change the energy of a gathering.
From corporate catch-ups and team lunches to larger celebrations and private events, Jetty Road offers a very different take on the traditional business event, one that’s casual, social and
firmly connected to the Peninsula.
We talk about hospitality, local produce, creating the right atmosphere and the simple power of bringing people together over something they can share.
Because sometimes the best meetings don’t feel like meetings at all.

What if the journey to your event became part of the event itself?
In this episode of Meet The Peninsula Hosts, we take to the water with Searoad Ferries and explore how crossing Port Phillip can turn a simple transfer into an experience.
We discover what makes the Sorrento–Queenscliff ferry journey so distinctive and how the combination of coastal scenery, fresh air and time together can create an unexpected
opportunity for connection.
We also look at the role experiences play in business events, and why getting delegates out of
the traditional conference environment can change the way they engage with a destination and
with each other.
With the Peninsula and Bellarine connected by a 40-minute crossing, the ferry offers more than
a way to get from A to B. It offers a chance to slow down, take in the view and start the experience before you even arrive.
