West HQ

What West HQ does

West HQ is an integrated leisure and hospitality destination located in Rooty Hill, Western Sydney, Australia, operating continuously since 1964. The venue combines multiple consumer-facing verticals under a single site: entertainment events, dining, hotel accommodation, fitness, aquatics, and gymnastics services. Its primary identifiable event vertical is the Oyster & Seafood Festival, launched in 2023 and expanded to run throughout August 2026, positioning West HQ as a regional culinary tourism anchor in Western Sydney.

The company operates an event-driven go-to-market model, monetizing through on-site visitor attendance, event hosting, venue operations, and membership or service revenue across its fitness, aquatics, and gymnastics facilities. Marketing relies on regional earned media coverage of flagship events, and customer acquisition is driven by physical footfall to the Western Sydney site. The organization employs 501-1000 staff to support its multi-vertical operations.

No funding rounds, M&A activity, partnerships, or external investors are disclosed in the available data. Ownership structure is unconfirmed, and no information about founders, parent companies, or control relationships is available. West HQ appears to operate as an independent, privately held venue operator, with Richard Errington serving as Chief Executive Officer.
