About this space

Whiteley is an Event Space in Rydges North Sydney and is a flat-floored, adaptable ballroom-style room characterised by generous ceiling height and clear sightlines.

Design: The room shows a neutral, contemporary conference palette: timber panelling, pale walls and patterned carpet beneath a coffered ceiling with recessed strip lighting. The overall impression is formal and streamlined, with uninterrupted floor space configured for flexible seating plans.

Features: The room includes an installed PA and speaker system and permits guest music and outside DJs. The space provides a designated area suitable for a dancefloor, natural daylight alongside fitted lighting, step-free guest entrance and full wheelchair access. The room also has climate-controlled air conditioning and complimentary Wi‑Fi.

Ideal for: Larger corporate or community groups seeking a formal, presentation-focused layout or a polished standing reception.

What sets it apart: A set of three built-in projection screens spans the front wall to support multiple displays or large presentations.

What guests say: The room is clean, comfortable and generally quiet.
