Located just 90-minutes from Melbourne, Phillip Island offers a visually stunning blend of natural beauty, comfortable resorts, easy accessibility across the entire island, and some of Australia’s finest dining and catering options. Ideal for events of any shape and size, the island boasts a range of boutique conference and events venues for smaller groups of up to 40, right through to state-of-the-start conference spaces that can bring entire organisations together. 

One-of-a-kind views for an unforgettable event

It starts with the views and venues that take full advantage of the natural assets Phillip Island has to offer. The Nobbies Centre is a location that few would forget.

Located within the Phillip Island Nature Parks, the Centre affords breathtaking views of the island’s rugged south coast and Seal Rocks – home to Australia’s largest fur seal colony.

You can also host a team in the board rooms at The Penguin Parade, where you’ll be surrounded by the world’s largest little penguin colony – no other events space will get you as close to them. There are two spaces available – the Ocean Room (100 pax) and Summerlands Room (80pax), which can also be combined to accommodate up to 180 guests.
