ICC Sydney

ICC Sydney is one of Sydney’s leading convention, exhibition and entertainment venues, located in Darling Harbour. The precinct hosts major conferences, trade shows, expos, gala events, concerts and live performances throughout the year.

For guests staying in Macquarie Park, ICC Sydney is often part of a broader Sydney itinerary. You may be attending a multi-day conference, heading into the city for an evening event, or combining business in Macquarie Park with a major event in Darling Harbour.

Conferences, exhibitions and city events

With its central location and large-scale event spaces, ICC Sydney attracts business and leisure visitors from across Australia and overseas. The surrounding Darling Harbour precinct also offers restaurants, bars, waterfront walks and easy access to the Sydney CBD, making it a practical destination before or after an event.

If you are attending ICC Sydney, it is worth checking your ticket or event details before travelling, as the precinct includes multiple venues across the Convention Centre, Exhibition Centre and ICC Sydney Theatre.

Why stay at Crowne Plaza Sydney Macquarie Park

Crowne Plaza Sydney Macquarie Park suits guests who want access to ICC Sydney while still staying close to Macquarie Park, North Ryde or Sydney’s north-west business corridor.

For conference guests, this can work well when your trip includes meetings outside the CBD. For concert or event stays, it offers a more relaxed place to return to after time in Darling Harbour, with contemporary rooms, Bistro Sydney for breakfast and Bistro Bar for a drink at the end of the day.

Getting to ICC Sydney

ICC Sydney is approximately a 25 to 35-minute drive from Crowne Plaza Sydney Macquarie Park, depending on traffic and event timing. Travel may take longer during peak periods or major city events.

Guests can also travel by Metro and train, connecting from Macquarie Park towards the city, then continuing to Town Hall, Central or nearby light rail stops. From there, ICC Sydney is accessible on foot or by light rail, depending on the venue listed on your ticket.

Stay connected to the city, without staying in it

For guests attending events at ICC Sydney, Crowne Plaza Sydney Macquarie Park offers a practical stay outside the city centre, with comfortable rooms, on-site dining and access to both Darling Harbour and Sydney’s north. It is a useful option when your visit includes more than one part of Sydney.
