The Social at IPAC Centre (The Illawarra Performing Arts) in Wollongong and the National Portrait Gallery in Canberra join the ranks of Trippas White Group’s expanding venue catering portfolio.

The Social at IPAC is a new café and bar operated by the Trippas White Group at the Illawarra Performing Arts Centre, home of Merrigong Theatre Company, in the heart of Wollongong’s vibrant Arts Precinct.

In addition to all-day café style dining, Trippas will also provide theatre patrons with pre and post-performance drink with two bars servicing The Gordon and IMB Theatres.

In addition to this, Trippas White has just entered into a deal with the National Portrait Gallery in Canberra that follows in the footsteps of its relationship with AGNSW. The caterer will now manage the café and event catering for function spaces that house up to 500 guests at a time.

Opened in 2008, the National Portrait Gallery is home to the nation’s portrait collection as well as temporary exhibitions and displays some 400 portraits of people who have shaped our nation.
