InterContinental Sydney Hotel Events

Circular Quay is the social epicentre of Sydney’s magnificent waterfront, and the InterContinental Sydney hotel takes pride in place along the harbour. Located just a 4-minute walk from Circular Quay train station, the luxury 5-star hotel and its penthouse event space overlook the city’s architectural icons including the striking Sydney Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Conveniently, the InterContinental Sydney is also the first hotel that you’ll arrive at when disembarking the Eastern Distributor motorway from both Sydney International and Domestic airports. It’s ideal for an elegant duo seeking a luxurious and accessible weddings and events venue with all-inclusive ease of reception and accommodation in one glamorous destination.

From the moment you step through the hotel’s grand sandstone arches, you will discover a world of timeless grandeur. The six stately event spaces range in capacity and style, from contemporary celebration suites to more traditional ballroom styles. A beautiful heritage-listed Treasury Building that dates back to 1851, the venue’s masterful restoration preserves the best of the past and incorporates the latest event technology.

Catering at InterContinental Sydney is designed and prepared by an award-winning team. Putting an emphasis on innovation and using seasonal ingredients, they’ll customise every component of your menu with gourmet dishes inspired by international cuisines. No request is too extravagant; the catering team will accommodate any dietary or special requests.

Venue Testimonials

I just had my wedding here in the treasury room. It was an amazing event with fantastic service and food. The hotel and treasury room are gorgeous. We also got the harbour view room which was amazing to stay in! The events coordinators also do everything they can to ensure everything is perfect and runs smoothly.

The best venue for conference. I've been there for many conferences and each time I was amazed with its beauty.

Afshin F

My company recently celebrated our Christmas party in one of the private rooms. Everything was great. Staff very friendly and the food was great. Obviously very easy to get to and a stones throw from the quay and opera house. Would happily recommend.
