Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre is a Melbourne icon. Located in the vibrant South Wharf precinct, just a stroll along the Yarra River to Southbank, the Arts precinct and the centre of Melbourne city. The MCEC hosts more than 1,000 events each year and is the largest combined exhibition and convention centre in Australia. It has recently been awarded a 6 Star Green Star environmental rating by the Green Building Council of Australia, the first in the world for a convention centre.
