The ACT Government has invested $30 million in the upgrade which will provide a power-house venue for the national and international markets, with unrivalled facilities, size and scope in the seat of power, Canberra. 

The new National Convention Centre will provide conference delegates with a unique experience of Canberra, with a “Sense of Canberra” as a prime focus. 

Improvements to technology, security and catering will deliver unparalleled function standards and the refurbishment will allow a more flexible and accessible floor plan to better cater for conferences of more than 600 delegates. This has been facilitated by a new moveable drapes system leading to the Royal Theatre which will enable more flexibility in the use of the space.
