Conference Venues Where Business Meets Pleasure

Sydney, being the most happening place in Australia, has a range of exciting, exotic, exceptional and exclusive locations that befit all kinds of conferences and functions that you would want hosted in Sydney.

While on the one hand Sydney is well equipped with all kinds of restaurants and hotels – casual, sophisticated, luxurious, swanky and stylish – on the other, the city is also blessed with extensive areas of parklands, landscapes, gardens, beaches, harbour side, mountains, valleys and vineyards - all with their own exclusive function locations.

There are conference venues in Sydney that are right at the centre of the city and also just a walk away from the famous icons of Sydney – the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. The delegates and guests can take a stroll on the Harbour Bridge and enjoy an amazing view of Sydney and the harbour from atop the world’s most recognized bridge and then wander into the streets of The Rocks that are picture-pretty with their old world charm!

Looking out on to the Hyde Park is the Sheraton on the Park right at the centre of a landscape of its own. Sir Stamford is situated on Macquarie Street. Both the building and the street are of historic importance and the area is surrounded by vast stretches of eye-pleasing landscapes. The Sydney icons and the harbour are just a lazy walk away!

Thoroughly blessed by nature, Sydney has plenty of exotic locations that can render any kind of function unique and every meeting a delight - the perfect way to mix business with pleasure. The Lion Gate Lodge of the Royal Botanic Gardens has a venue that stretches into a beautiful courtyard that provides a very fresh and motivating setting for team building and other group activities. The sandstone structure that is a reflection of the Victorian era and the adjoining cottage garden add a nostalgic ambience to the charming venue. Fort Denison, an island on Sydney Harbour which has a 360-degree view of the spectacular harbour, is a historic venue with a unique ambience created by its harbour setting and sandstone architecture.

Corporate venues in Sydney are so many that there is one to suit any size or any group and any event idea that one can think up! Though it would be mere toil to even attempt to list them in an article, this article would be lacking if the most exciting of all venues – the cruise boat venues – are not made a note of. The cruises provide venues that combine the beautiful setting of the harbour, the sightseeing opportunities, the outdoor element and a restaurant feel. Two of the most noteworthy of them all are the Magistic Cruises and the Sydney Showboats. While the former operates cruises on catamarans that are stylish in their decor and sophisticated in their ambience, the latter operates authentic paddle wheelers that reflect nostalgic appeal and exude modern luxury. Events on these cruises can be customised to one’s requirements while the menu can be fixed to suit the group’s preferences, and the food is freshly prepared and stylishly served on board.

In Sydney, when it comes to business functions, it’s all pleasure and no wonder!
