Venue Hire

Anzac Hall offers a truly unique dining experience where you can wine and dine among historic items, authentic objects and great works of art depicting Australia’s military history.

Anzac Hall has three separate areas which you can use during your function, making the space suitable for large gala diners, presentations, cocktail functions, or smaller boutique functions. Each area is surrounded by large war relics including the massive Lancaster bomber, "G for George", a midget submarine, and rare First World War aircraft.

Give your delegates an experience they will never forget by scheduling any of our four audiovisual shows during your function. Watch Peter Jackson’s amazing depiction of First World aerial combat in Over the front: the Great War in the air; see a daring Bomber Command raid involving “G for George” in Striking by night; experience Sydney in 1942 when the Japanese midget submarines raided the harbour in Sydney under attack; or see the famous Sydney–Emden fight in Our first naval victory. These multimedia shows can be scheduled during your function in Anzac Hall, ask our event coordinator for more information.
