The VenuesLive catering team at Sydney’s CommBank Stadium has received further industry recognition being named Australian Venue Caterer of the Year at the 2023 National Restaurant and Catering Hostplus Awards For Excellence.

Presented yesterday evening at a function at Le Montage - Navarra Collection in Sydney, VenuesLive NSW edged out competitors from other states and territories to receive the award for outstanding delivery and execution.

Welcoming the award, VenuesLive Managing Director, Daryl Kerry stated said: “It is a great honour for our team to be named Australian Venue Caterer of the Year.

“To be independently assessed by experts in the restaurant and catering industry as the best venue caterer in the country speaks volumes for the skills, dedication and professionalism in our VenuesLive team.”

Kerry paid special tribute to General Manager Catering (NSW) Mark Adler, Executive Chef Craig Veigel, Head of Hospitality Food & Beverage Michelle Profilio and Head of Meetings & Special Events Dave Greselin and their teams.

Kerry also acknowledged the great influence that celebrity chef and VenuesLive Culinary Ambassador Matt Moran has had on the quality of food on offer at VenuesLive-catered venues.

VenuesLive had previously won two major awards for delivery and execution at CommBank Stadium at the NSW Restaurant & Catering Awards for Excellence.
