Celebrating 14 Years of Partnership at Novotel Sunshine Coast Resort

For 14 years, AVPartners has been proud to partner with Novotel Sunshine Coast Resort as its in-house technology and commercial partner.

Over this time, together we have delivered more than 7,000 events, from intimate social gatherings and weddings through to gala dinners, awards nights, and large-scale corporate and incentive programs, the venue has played host to an incredible breadth of experiences.

This partnership has always been about more than event delivery.

Working closely with the resort team, AVPartners contributed to the ongoing evolution of the venue’s event offering, including supporting the design and development of the Sunshine Coast Convention Centre. This collaboration helped shape a space purpose-built for world-class events and positioned the resort as a leading destination for conferences and incentives in Queensland.

At the heart of this success has been a shared commitment to quality, consistency, and collaboration. This is reflected in a 96% client satisfaction score, achieved across our events. 

Beyond the events themselves, we are especially proud of the role the partnership has played in supporting the local community. From initiatives such as the Accor Race to Survive to the Wish List Carnival, these moments have reinforced the importance of connection, contribution, and purpose.

This journey has been driven by people. We recognise and thank the many AVPartners team members who have contributed to the success of this partnership over the years, including our Partners and Associates:

Tom Dunn, Mark Gurd, Ritchie Harland, Andrew Delangen, Nathan Hinschen and Nicole Kilkenny.

We also extend our sincere thanks to the Shakespeare Property Group, owners of the resort since 2018, and Accor, whose leadership and management have been instrumental in the venue’s continued success.

Most importantly, we thank our clients. Your trust, collaboration, and ambition have made every event an opportunity to create something memorable.

While this chapter comes to a close, the relationships built over the past 14 years continue. AVPartners looks forward to supporting clients across our broader portfolio of resort and venue partners in the years ahead.
