Bid for an event


Bidding for - and winning - the right to host your organisation’s major conferences, meetings, events and incentives in Sydney will bring considerable benefits to Sydney, New South Wales (NSW), your organisation, your conference visitors and you personally.


By bidding to bring an event to Sydney, you can showcase your industry and its achievements to national and international media, boost attendance at the actual event, maximise profits for your organisation, and strengthen your own business relationships.


Sydney is one of the world’s most desired destinations and in many cases conferences held in Sydney have attracted record numbers of delegates.


When you bid to host an event in Sydney you are supported throughout the entire process. Each year, Business Events Sydney (BESydney) partners with close to 100 associations to bid to bring their meetings and events to Sydney. BESydney has a ‘win rate’ of 73%.


If you’re bidding to bring an event to Sydney, BESydney will tailor your bid strategy, help to source funding, identify research opportunities, host site inspections, and provide you with professional marketing assistance, free of charge. Our aim is to help you win the right to host your organisation’s event in Sydney. 


Bidding for a non-business event?
