Centre of the Meetings Universe

There are so many creative ways to hold a conference
or special event in Australia’s largest city.

Aross the Sydney Harbour Bridge from the city CBD
and there’s a wide range of meetings venues awaiting
the canny organiser. There are academic venues such as the HC Coombs Centre for Financial Studies, Kirribilli, or the tranquil bushland setting of the UTS North Shore Conference Centre at Lindfield. The latter has 2 conference rooms which can be joined to seat 80 people theatre style and 3 break-out rooms. Together with generously proportioned lounge and dining areas, and ample audiovisual facilities, the UTS North Shore Conference Centre can cater for the most demanding client.
The seaside resort suburb of Manly offers a delightful ambience and has been a leader in conference organisation for many years. Easily accessed by road or by ferry from Circular Quay, Manly has a range of well-appointed resort hotels and venues. For post-conference leisure activities or after hours winding-down, Manly has an almost endless selection of restaurants, hotels and bars, meaning delegates don’t have to move too far for an active nightlife.
The Manly Pacific Sydney, managed by Novotel, opened 52 new courtyard rooms last year with their first guests being members of the English Rugby World Cup team. Larger than other rooms at the hotel, the courtyard rooms have all the comforts of apartment living with the convenience of hotel services.

REEL ‘EM IN!
The bronzed Aussie image so prevalent in tourism promotion now crosses over to the corporate sector with the introduction of the Surf Life Saving School. It brings together 6 surf life saving clubs on the Northern Beaches – Freshwater, Long Reef, South Narrabeen, Warriewood, Mona Vale and Avalon. Each of these offer venue hire with catering available from the Avocado Group. In addition, corporate teambuilding programs are also available.
On the northern peninsula, the Newport Mirage is a well-respected part of the conference community. The boutique
4 star waterfront conference resort makes a perfect base for sailing and teambuilding exercises on Pittwater.
A fleet of 8 identically-matched and extremely fast Sydney 38 yachts are available for the use of Newport Mirage clients. The Sydney 38 has been specifically designed with corporate sailing in mind and are the ultimate racing experience. Groups are assisted by an experienced skipper and work together to achieve speed and position, helming, trimming sails, navigating and strategic decisions.
