Sergeants’ Mess Sydney Corporate Functions & Events

Sergeants’ Mess is a modern, luxury function centre in Sydney’s Chowder Bay precinct, offering four different event spaces for meetings, conferences, training seminars, and other corporate events. This stunning venue is elevated, surrounded by bushland, and located right on the waterfront, offering guests a private, exclusive place to host their event. 

The elegant waterfront function centre has been remodelled by the Grand Pacific Group, a well-known hospitality company that specialises in restoring historic venues and giving them a modern, elegant twist. Sergeants’ Mess is no exception, and has been transformed into a contemporary venue with a bar, stylish outdoor patio and sleek main dining room. The function centre has a contemporary, sophisticated interior, but still maintains the grandeur of the 1960s — holding onto its original spirit and charm. 

Each of the four function areas offers sweeping views of Sydney Harbour, so you’ll be spoilt for choice when choosing your event space. If you’re after a professional and modern place to host a meeting, you might choose the boardroom at Sergeants’ Mess, which can hold up to 60 guests and offers state-of-the-art technology for presentations.

Venue Testimonials

Excellent venue. Magnificent views. Third function I have attended there. Very good service. High standard of food. Nothing a problem for staff. Very accommodating.

Silver W

Did a very good job hosting a large number of guests for a traditional hindu wedding. They are able to accommodate traditional ceremonies and were quite flexible in our requests (within the limits of being in a national park). Food was delicious, staff are very responsive and helpful and the views are beautiful.

Radheshan B

The team at Sergeants were wonderful. They worked really well with us over email and answered our questions promptly, despite us being overseas in America. They were on the ball with all our special requests and need. […] The food was delicious.
