He statet that in a stabilised year, exhibition attendees alone spend more than $340 million in the local economy.

The early children’s expo kicked off this year’s calendar with a consumer show that attracted 8,000 attendees and 120 exhibitors across two days at Australia’s largest early parenting event. “Our Sydney event has set a high benchmark for safe and engaging exhibition delivery and we look forward to creating more opportunities for brands and consumers to connect in the coming months,” said Event Crowd Managing Director Cameron Just.

This week the venue held its first trade show for the year, Get Local, a business events and tourism industry event, which attracted 500 registered buyers with the participation of more than 1,000 exhibitors, media representatives, guests and speakers.

ICC Sydney is currently running a range of in person events at the venue with over 200 events scheduled until the end of financial year.
