Where great minds converge

With business events and conferences surging in popularity once more, Penrith’s appeal as a location for these events is also rising.

A number of major conferences will be held in Penrith over the coming 18 months, a testament to the attractive offering the City provides. Recently announced conferences coming to Penrith include the 2024 National Growth Areas Alliance National Congress, the 2025 Local Government NSW Annual Conference, and Lights on Western Sydney Visitor Economy Forum.

The 1,000 seat Western Sydney Conference Centre and adjoining 5-star Pullman Sydney Penrith (pictured left) are proving a major drawcard for event organisers. Penrith offers a host of other venues to suit events of all sizes, including the 350 seat Saints Event Centre and 200 seat Astina Suites.

Council representatives sought to build further demand in the meetings, incentives, conference and events market at the 2024 Asia Pacific Incentives and Meetings Event (AIME) in Melbourne. Delegates were impressed with the depth and quality of the offering in Penrith and commented on the City’s proactive approach to highlighting accessible venues.

The coincide with the event, Council released the latest Penrith Business Events Guide. As the guide shows, not only does Penrith offer world-class venues and unique team building activities, but it also boasts a vibrant dining scene, spectacular outdoor adventures, thrilling adrenaline attractions, fascinating historical treasures and a diverse arts and cultural scene.
