Bringing together a world class museum, a shrine and an extensive archive, the Australian War Memorial tells the stories of men and women who have served, and continue to serve our nation.
Our unique function spaces are set among large and rare historic objects and authentic works of art created by some of Australia’s leading artists.
The Memorial is one of very few places where you can dine amid such unique objects, making it one your delegates will remember.
