More Than a Venue — A Home for Purposeful Gatherings

We’re living in a time of noise, burnout, and surface‑level everything. But people are craving something more. Real connection. Real stories. Real change.

That’s why we created the Cuppa Co-Lab — a space designed for thinkers, doers, storytellers, teams, authors, and creators to come together not just to meet, but to make meaning.

Whether you’re launching a book, filming a show, running a workshop, or hosting a panel, the Co-Lab is where conversations go deeper — and ripple out further.

This isn’t just where events happen.

It’s where movements take flight.

Leanne Glamuzina

Head of Marketing, oOh!media

I recently hosted an offsite at Luke Cook’s new venue, Cuppa Co-Lab, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish.

The facilities are beautifully designed – welcoming, functional, and perfectly set up for a productive team session.

The service was exceptional, with genuine care, attention to detail, and support that made everything feel effortless.

What made the experience even more special was hearing Luke’s story and the passion behind what he’s building at Cuppa. It truly resonated and added an extra layer of meaning to the day.

I couldn’t recommend the venue more highly for anyone looking for a space that combines quality, warmth, and thoughtful hospitality.

We recently engaged Luke Cook and Cuppa.tv to support our cultural learning for NAIDOC Week. Through a conversational delivery, Luke introduced us to Indigenous Leader Dr. Paul Callaghan, who expertly addressed various important topics such as Indigenous leadership, truth-telling, the importance of our story, and our journey towards reconciliation.

At Ventia, we take pride in reflecting on our journey as individuals, leaders, and as an organisation around reconciliation and after this powerful 60-minute session, we were left feeling inspired to take action.

I walked away from this session with my cup filled, and the feedback from our team has also been overwhelmingly positive, marking this as one of the best cultural conversations we’ve experienced. Thanks to Dr. Paul Callaghan and Cuppa.tv for creating this impactful moment for our organisation
