Our unique venues cater for five to 500 guests. Our award-winning caterer, Bayleaf, offers flexible fine food packages, from light refreshments to formal banquets. The museum's venues are perfect to decorate and theme. We can even arrange it for you. Our suppliers provide all your event needs, including floral arrangements, furniture hire, chair covers and linen, staging, dancefloor and AV equipment.

Team-building is fun and challenging when you combine our meeting venue and a sailing regatta with the resident sailing company Sydney By Sail.

Tie the knot with romantic impact when you arrive by boat or water taxi to our wedding venues, right at the museum's pontoons. Make your celebration unique and truly an event to remember.

For a personal touch, combine your event with a private guided tour of the latest exhibition or fascinating vessel.  Alternatively, book an after-hours curator's talk for an educational twist to your event.

Relax and let us make your function a very special occasion.
