Welcome to ACEB
Australian Conference and Events Bureau
The Australian Conference & Events Bureau (ACEB) is the largest meetings industry alliance in the region and this website is a resource for meeting managers.
You can search for conference and meeting venues in Australia and New Zealand check out their facilities and meeting room sizes, then make direct contact with the people you need to talk with. No third parties involved, which means no spam!
You will also find information on our partners in each region, from conference managers to audio visual suppliers and everything in between. They will show you how to cut costs without cutting corners at your next event.
Any enquiries you make on this site are not sent or sold to third party venues or suppliers. Customers are only contacted by the venue/supplier they have selected.
Users of the ACEB website will not receive unsolicited sales calls or materials. All enquiries go directly to the contact you select – meaning no SPAM.
ACEB also hold free seminars for conference and event organisers. These are usually held in March/April and August/September each year. Keep an eye on the seminar link for details.
