The centrepiece of Melbourne's new South Wharf development is the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC) - Australia's most versatile convention and exhibition facility.

The MCEC boasts 52 meeting rooms of various sizes, a grand banquet room, a spectacular entry level foyer, and a 5550+ state-of-the-art plenary that can be divided into three self-contained, acoustically separate theatres.

Sitting alongside and internally linked to the convention centre is the Melbourne Exhibition Centre featuring 30,000 square metres of purpose-built clear-span exhibition space, meeting rooms, a 466-seat auditorium and the Clarendon Room with spectacular views over the Yarra River.

The MCEC is owned by the Victorian State Government and managed by the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Trust (MCET).
