Testing Grounds invites applications for the commercial hire of the site.

Commercial hire of the site is offered in return for a site levy, which directly funds the Buying Time residency project.

We are proud to partner with Right Angle Event Management and Production Services (Right Angle Events) to manage and deliver commercial events on site. They are experienced in running events of all scales, with a particular experience working in arts venues.

Because Testing Grounds is an interdisciplinary art space first and foremost, the application process involves some negotiation between the hirer, Testing Grounds, and Right Angle Events.

The first step is to come down and walk through the site, or check out our Google 360 walkthrough, to make sure Testing Grounds is right for you. We can let you know the availability of the site, and then we’ll direct you to Right Angle Events to discuss specific event requirements and costings. Once you’re ready to go, fill out the application form below.

Once your application has been approved, Right Angle Events will be your primary contact as they will be responsible for planning and delivering your event.

Consideration of any commercial application is based upon its impact upon the site, availability in fitting with the existing artistic program, as well as how it aligns with the ambitions of Testing Grounds, which can be understood by reading our Program Structure.
