Venue

The International Convention Centre Sydney on Darling Harbour, and the many ways to reach it.

International Convention Centre Sydney

IMLB 2022 was held at the International Convention Centre Sydney, an integrated convention, exhibition and entertainment venue on Darling Harbour. The centre opened in December 2016 and was designed to support large meetings with flexible rooms, exhibition space and a waterfront setting.

The venue sits inside a precinct of restaurants, public spaces and hotels. The central business district, Barangaroo, the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House are within walking distance, and a range of hotels sits close enough to make the daily commute part of the walk.

  • Meeting rooms and exhibition space in one complex
  • Darling Harbour setting with public transport and ferries nearby
  • Hotels, restaurants and the city centre within walking distance
  • A waterfront precinct that made the meeting easy to navigate

The light rail runs through Darling Harbour with stops at the Convention Centre and Exhibition Centre. It connects Central Station with the inner west. Town Hall and Central Stations are about a 10 minute walk from the venue.
