The Conference Committee are proud to report that the prestigious Burswood Entertainment Complex has been chosen as the venue for the 19th Australian Orchid Conference in 2012.
All major activities (exhibition, vendors, lecture program) of the 19th AOC will be held under the same roof.
The Orchid Exhibition and Vendors will be in the huge Burswood Grand Ballroom which covers over 1800 square metres and boasts wide access for exhibitors when setting up their orchid displays, a stage, sound system and a six metre ceiling.
This does not include the huge Foyer with an area of 1500 square metres, which is available for Conference use, as are the dedicated reception and registration areas.
The Lecture Program will take place in the aptly named Botanical Room a short walk away on the floor below. Both escalators and lifts are available for movement between the two areas. The Botanical Room is equipped with state of the art facilities including inbuilt sound systems, digital projectors, and screens. Covering a floor area of 389 square metres, the Botanical Room can seat 350 people when in theatre mode.
The focus of the Burswood Entertainment Complex is the Burswood Casino, while the Complex also includes numerous restaurants and bars dotted around the area with tastes to please everyone.
Two magnificent hotels, the InterContinental Perth Burswood Hotel, and the Holiday Inn Burswood are also included and can be viewed on our Accommodation Page.
Transport to and from the complex is enhanced by the plethora of car parking areas, some under cover and many free parking spaces. Buses from the Perth CBD pass by the front of the Burswood Entertainment Complex
