The End of the Financial Year is fast approaching and with it, the rare opportunity to host an EOFY event inside White Bay Power Station during the 25th Biennale of Sydney – an iconic heritage site that will ensure you finish the financial year on a high paired with the exceptional hospitality Cook & Waiter is known for.
White Bay Power is currently one of the sites of the 25th Biennale of Sydney, which runs until 14 June 2026. We are proud to be the exclusive hospitality provider for the three-month cultural showcase, elevating corporate events in Sydney into truly memorable guest experiences.
There is still time, before Australia’s largest contemporary art festival takes a two-year hiatus, to secure one of the most unique Sydney EOFY venues for your celebration.
The monolithic post-industrial location forms the dramatic backdrop for provocative installations from artists worldwide, drawing hundreds of thousands of visitors. Just imagine hosting a private EOFY event here.
Three elements make this a one-of-a-kind EOFY event venue in Sydney: the biennial rarity, the raw industrial art immersion, and exclusive event hospitality experiences unlike anything White Bay Power Station has offered before.
A Rare EOFY Opportunity at the Biennale of Sydney
The Biennale of Sydney isn’t permanent, or even annual – it’s a fleeting cultural pulse that strikes once every two years. Unlike standard venues, Biennale of Sydney events offer something that won’t be repeated in the same way again: art that provokes, spaces that inspire, and hospitality that keeps the experience alive long after guests head home.
If you’re searching for a unique corporate event venue in Sydney that makes a statement – and creates long-lasting memories – this is the place.
Where Industrial Heritage Meets Contemporary Art
Nothing rivals the industrial art atmosphere of White Bay Power Station events. Built between 1913 and 1943 to power Sydney’s tram and rail networks, its colossal halls now pulse with contemporary edge: rusted steel framing neon lights and shadows moving across concrete beneath largescale works of art.
Picture a corporate dinner where conversations unfold against the original architectural features and ground-breaking contemporary art. The scale is striking: dramatic sightlines for networking, raw textures that photograph beautifully, and heritage character that gives executive-level events real impact.
This isn’t a blank box ballroom; it’s a canvas where art elevates your brand story. An EOFY event at White Bay Power Station places your business at the centre of one of the city’s most talked about cultural moments.
Exclusive EOFY Catering in Sydney by Cook & Waiter
As the exclusive hospitality provider on site, we scale from intimate gatherings to 3,000-guest galas, delivering EOFY catering in Sydney that feels as unique and contemporary as the art surrounding it.
Our menus respond to the space: seasonal produce and artisan flavours plated with clean lines and thoughtful texture, all executed smoothly within the industrial setting. They echo the Biennale’s spirit of innovation and cultural exchange, complementing the installations.
Among the many Sydney corporate event venues, few compare to the experience of celebrating inside White Bay Power Station’s towering Turbine Hall, cavernous Boiler House and soaring Mezzanine. We’ve created diverse event formats including:
- Biennale breakfasts with an EOFY flavour – think house-made pastries, seasonal fruits and barista coffee.
- EOFY cocktail receptions with canapés and sweet treats, paired with curated wines and cocktails.
- Heritage-chic EOFY dinners – whether an awards dinner, incentive celebration, or corporate party – featuring native-infused dishes for an Australian-inspired feast.
- Sydney EOFY team building experiences and guided art tours with generous grazing tables and sommelier-led tastings.
- High tea EOFY soirees in heritage surrounds with Champagne on arrival – ideal for elegant networking and intimate catch-ups.
Our signature event experiences are fully customisable. Whether it’s a banquet dinner, cocktail party or relaxed networking event, we can shape every element around your EOFY brief and create something genuinely one-of-a-kind.
Logistics are part of our craft: from roving teams supporting art tours to generous grazing tables quietly replenished behind the scenes. We coordinate every detail so your guests can enjoy an end of financial year event in Sydney that feels as considered as the surrounding showcase.
