Sonder East End and Vicinity are almost across the road from the venue. You can self-cater at both apartments if you are looking after your budget.

There are plenty of hotels around too, the Elliot Park Hotel is really close. With hotel service, breakfast etc. they may just give you that bit of extra convenience. For a bit of both worlds, the Mint House hosts apartments although it is a hotel.
