The 22 October Public Open Day will be the first time the community can venture through the doors of the highly anticipated, world-class venue that is set to re-define the way business and entertainment events are delivered in Sydney.
ICC Sydney Chief Executive Officer Geoff Donaghy said this is an exciting opportunity to explore the iconic new venue and be immersed in its innovative integrated design.
“As one of Asia-Pacific’s most technologically advanced venues, ICC Sydney will host a calendar of high profile events year round. We already have more than 380 events locked in, including world leading exhibits like The Hunger Games: The Exhibition and performances from international superstars Keith Urban and PJ Harvey. We can’t wait to show Sydney the venue that will change the face of events of the city,” Mr Donaghy said.
NSW Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Andrew Constance said the reinvigorated domain sits at the heart of the $3.4 billion redevelopment of Darling Harbour, and will play a significant role in boosting the local economy.
“ICC Sydney will contribute at least $5 billion to NSW’s economy over the next 25 years, employing at least 300 full time staff and a further 1,500 casual workers. The venue will support local food and wine industries and launch local producers onto the global stage," Mr Constance said.
"ICC Sydney is expected to attract hundreds of thousands of visitors each year to our vibrant city, driving enduring gains including business relationships, knowledge transfer and industry investment."
The Public Open Day is part of a three-month period of intensive testing, training and commissioning by the ICC Sydney team.
