Nyaal Banyul Geelong Convention and Event Centre

The Victorian Government and project consortium representatives will explain how they have translated the Nyaal Banyul Geelong Convention and Event Centre from a concept into a brief and then through to stunning design.

Nyaal Banyul Geelong Convention and Event Centre is the centrepiece of the Geelong City Deal. The precinct will include the construction of the purpose-built convention and event space, incorporating a 1000 seat venue, two large exhibition spaces, meeting rooms, conference facilities and flexible event spaces. The precinct will also be home to retail spaces for food and beverage offerings, a large public plaza that promises to become a feature of the Geelong waterfront and a 200-room Crown Plaza hotel. Victorian Government and project consortium representatives will explain how they have translated the project from a concept into a brief and then through to the stunning design that has recently been publicly shared.
