Justice and Police Minister Troy Grant today released the latest snapshot of the state's most violent venues, revealing a six-fold decrease in violent incidents since the list began in 2008.

Mr Grant said there were 200 violent incidents across 14 venues compared to 1,270 incidents across 48 venues ranked on the first violent venues list.

Venues in NSW can be categorised as level one, with 19 or more violent incidents in a year, or level two, with 12 to 18 incidents.

The Plantation Hotel at Coffs Harbour topped the list with 21 incidents, followed by Sydney's Home Nightclub with 19 incidents.

They are listed as level one venues under the scheme and are subject to a number of restrictions, including 1:30am lockouts and extra security measures.

Mr Grant said he was pleased to see several venues improving.

"I congratulate the six venues across the state that have been removed from this latest list," he said.

Mr Grant praised Ivy - a level one venue in the past four lists - for reducing its number of violent incidents from 23 in the previous list to 14.

However, Mr Grant said it was surprising and disappointing to add the Sydney Cricket (SCG) and Sports Ground Trust, which includes the SCG and the Sydney Football Stadium, to this year's list.

The trust has become the first sporting venue to make the list, with 12 incidents, including four at NRL fixtures.

"The trust have a lot of serious measures to make sure this doesn't happen and ultimately this comes down to the individuals who are acting in this way that bring ultimately all of us into disrepute," Mr Grant said.

"We will continue to work with the SCG Trust to build on how they're currently responding to alcohol-related violence.

"It's a key venue, it's got hundreds of thousands of people going through it every year."
