Where once a trip into Sydney City was required to watch a high calibre production such as MONTY PYTHON’S SPAMALOT, the phenomenal Coliseum Theatre has become a space where live theatre thrives. Combined with WEST HQ’s incredible dining and entertainment experiences, Western Sydney has become a hub for world-class productions, bringing with them talented Australian and International performers. 

That is perhaps the perfect invitation for the WEST audience. Make your way to Coliseum Theatre 22-25 October 2026 and see for yourself why Stephen Curry is the king of the castle.

We're proud to announce Saffron Meade as a Brand Ambassador of The WEST Journal. 

Saffron is the Camden-based founder of Saffron & Co Creative, a branding and design studio helping businesses bring their story to life through logos, packaging, websites and print.
 
Saffron has a passion for discovering the places most people haven't found yet, from hidden bars to galleries and local art exhibitions, and she loves inviting others along to try them. For her, WEST is about connection:
"Getting out of your comfort zone and trying new things. Exploring new places with friends and family and spending time with them. Meeting business owners that are so passionate about their offerings and welcoming you into their place to share in their culture."
 
Saffron's creative eye and love of local business make her a natural fit for our community, and she brings a genuine enthusiasm for sharing the places and people that make NSW special.

We are excited to have Saffron join us in backing our mission to facilitate meaningful experiences and community across New South Wales.
