Accessing the venue

Hobart Club Meet in the Davis Centre (previously known as the ARC ) at Guilford Young College, West Hobart Campus.

The preferred method of parking on the school site is at the Oval upper Patrick St (1). However, that leads to two flights of (steepish) steps to negotiate.

If steps aren’t your thing then you can also park at the lower Patrick St enterance (by the Tennis courts) where there are a limited number of spaces (3). At the lower Partick St enterance you will find the club’s A frame sign which has a bell attached you may need to press the bell if the doors are not open at the lower level.

You can also access the venue on foot via Partick St (4).
