State Library of NSW

Located in the heart of Sydney's commercial district, the State Library of New South Wales offers both a grand historical and modern versatile function venue.

The neo-classic splendour of the Mitchell Wing boasts the stunning Galleries, perfect for large product launches or cocktail receptions. The sandstone Dixson Room, featuring views across the Domain, can be utilised for conferences, wedding receptions, cocktails or banquets. Rich in ambience, the Shakespeare Room is ideal for intimate dinners and receptions.

The contemporary Macquarie Street Wing houses an auditorium with a fully equipped projection room, ensuring the success of presentations, conferences and lectures. For smaller events, the Seminar Rooms are ideal, the roof top garden providing delegates with a unique break-out area. Spacious, bright and recently refurbished the Glasshouse Cafe can host breakfasts, dinners and receptions.

Friendly and professional, the venue team understands the importance of your event and will ensure its every detail, thus making it a success.
