Let’s talk events. Book a discovery call with our event designers.

Planned. To perfection.

With the Hickory team as your guide, you will work with a dedicated event designer who will lead you throughout the journey. They’ll bring you styling ideas, menu and drink options, plus venue suggestions to choose from.

We want to collaborate with you in the most creative ways. Tell us your goals, objectives and audience, and we’ll work with you to create, plan and execute a stand-out event.

Emma​​​​ Paden
Venue & Operations Manager

As part of your event design, we work with you to create innovative and on-trend drinks and cocktails for all of our events and venue partners. Being able to watch an event come to life and see our clients enjoy the drinks we’ve created is really rewarding.

PRIVATE EVENT MENUS

We’re hard to beat. On flavour.

Our food is always bold and always bursting with seasonal flavours, thanks to our relationships with local suppliers and keen eye for what’s new and utterly delicious.

Event planning

With our event planning, event management and event logistics team on your side, nothing is left to chance. Thanks to a significant investment in resource planning technology we’re delighted to bring you complete transparency of our entire planning process via the Hickory Hub, our Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) tool. At any given moment you can see exactly how plans are shaping up, see menus, kit lists, and timings for everything. Not everyone wants that level of detail, but if you do, it is there 24/7.

Our dedicated team live and breathe incredible events. We are extremely passionate about what we do and know that delivering the details is what makes all the difference. Our philosophy is to listen, understand client’s needs, then create an incredible memorable event.
