Funeral live streaming at Frenchs Forest Bushland Cemetery
The name says Frenchs Forest, but the cemetery's address is 1 Hakea Avenue, Davidson, on the Northern Beaches. Metropolitan Memorial Parks runs it, services are held in the Lorikeet Room, and we have filmed and streamed funerals there.
About Frenchs Forest Bushland Cemetery
The cemetery covers 22 hectares of Hawkesbury sandstone bushland. Services are held in the Lorikeet Room, which seats about 80 and works as either a chapel or a function room. Its glass doors open onto an outdoor area, so the service and the gathering afterwards can happen in the same place at Davidson.
At about 80 seats, the Lorikeet Room suits small and mid-sized Northern Beaches funerals. Relatives further away, in the city, interstate or overseas, watch our stream on a private link. We bring at least three cameras and our own mobile internet to Hakea Avenue, and the family keeps the recording.

Questions families ask
The Lorikeet Room offers webcasting. When would a family book us?
Metropolitan Memorial Parks offers webcasting in the Lorikeet Room, and some families are happy with that. Others want at least three camera angles and a recording to keep, and ask their funeral director to book Stream Catcher. Either way, relatives who cannot get to Davidson can still follow the service live.
Can a funeral at Frenchs Forest Bushland Cemetery be live streamed?
Yes. We have filmed services in the Lorikeet Room at Davidson, including ones where the gathering carries on through the glass doors afterwards. Your funeral director books us, and the family gets a private link to share. We film with at least three cameras on our own internet connection and send the recording after the funeral.
