Plenary for 550 in a tiered auditorium, a 555 sqm exhibition and catering floor, and eleven breakout rooms — all under one roof in the CBD.
Few Sydney venues can run a full conference without a single guest leaving the building. At SMC, your plenary fills the 550-seat Grand Lodge, catering and exhibition flow through the Banquet Hall and Marble Foyer, and up to eleven configurable rooms carry your breakout program. Panasonic laser projection, 1000 Mbps connectivity, in-house AV and a digital concierge keep every session on time.
