Sydney’s pop-up exhibition space on schedule

Thursday, 14 Aug, 2013 0

Work is underway on Australia’s newest exhibition space, Sydney Exhibition Centre @ Glebe Island, with opening scheduled for February 2014.

The purpose-built, hard-walled facility offering up to 25,000 square metres of fully enclosed halls will house exhibitions in Sydney throughout the three-year development of the new International Convention Centre Sydney (ICC Sydney) and ICC Exhibition at Darling Harbour.

“Within a few months, Glebe Island will be transformed into a wonderful facility that will come to life with a full calendar of events and exhibitions,” said the facility’s general manager, Malu Barrios.

Managed by AEG Ogden, construction of the new facility has commenced with work on the foundation slab and other early site works.

The facility will be completed in January for readiness testing, with the first show opening in February.

Sydney Exhibition Centre @ Glebe Island will be serviced by a regular, scheduled special event ferry from Darling Harbour and shuttle buses from Central Station.
