Our 'Green' Commitment 
The Adelaide Convention Centre is seeking to be the nation's most environmentally responsible convention centre. Combining Gold Service with Green Attitude, we're doing everything in our power to make our centre, our events, and even our delegates, as eco-conscious as possible. We are ensuring our venue operates in the most environmentally responsible ways and we offer a series of Go for Green events packages, as well as a number of carbon emission offset options for the organisers and delegates of functions large and small.

Our Facilities
The multi-purpose facilities of the Adelaide Convention Centre have been enhanced by a stunning extension, which opened in September 2001. With a total area increase of 110%, the extended Centre now accommodates up to 6,500 banquet guests and offers 10,450m2 of pillarless floor space for exhibitions and banquets. The extension also improved access from both North Terrace and the upgraded Torrens precinct. An expansive atrium links the exhibition halls, conference and banquet areas, and the pre-function/foyer area of the Centre offers panoramic views over the river and parklands. Glass enclosed escalators provide guests easy access from North Terrace to the Centre. There is safe, secure, undercover parking on-site and three drive-in loading areas provide ample access direct from the roadway for staging and equipment needs.

The Plenary Hall
Tiered seating sections may be raised or lowered individually throughout the hall, creating either a flat floor or theatre style seating where required. The Hall can be subdivided into 5 smaller halls to suit your requirements, accommodating from 60 to 3,000 guests. The Hall is ideal for fashion spectaculars, major presentations and music concerts.

Meeting Rooms
Fourteen meeting rooms suitable for groups of 10 to 200 are located on the ground and mezzanine levels. As well as smaller seminars and meetings, the rooms are well suited to boardroom lunches, dinners, cocktail parties and weddings.

Exhibitions
Whether you are launching the latest combine harvester, staging a display or setting up an exhibition of any size, the Adelaide Convention Centre Exhibition Hall is the perfect venue. Designed for easy access of display materials, the Hall has a 565 booth capacity with telephone, electricity and water services at hand.

Foyers
The main foyer reception area is permanently staffed for convention registration, reception and information services . A digital signage system displays function identification and relevant details for ease of registration. The total of 8 foyers throughout the Convention Centre and Exhibition Hall can be conveniently utilised for registration, morning and afternoon teas and pre-function entertaining.
