When you’re searching for a corporate function venue in Sydney CBD, the options can feel overwhelming — and underwhelming at the same time. Too small. Too generic. Too far from the office. Not quite right for the occasion. That’s exactly why The Clarence Room exists.
Nestled within Club York at 95–99 York Street, The Clarence Room is Sydney CBD’s newest and most versatile event space — purpose-built for organisations that refuse to settle. Whether you’re hosting a polished corporate conference, an intimate boardroom dinner, a gala award night or a milestone celebration, this is the venue hire Sydney professionals have been waiting for.
Four Ways to Host — Layouts for Every Event
One of the things that sets The Clarence Room apart from other event spaces in Sydney CBD is its flexibility. The space is designed to work around your event — not the other way around. With four distinct layout configurations, The Clarence Room adapts to suit the style and scale of any occasion:
Theatre — 250 Guests — Rows facing the stage. Perfect for conferences, presentations, AGMs and keynote addresses.
Cabaret — 160 Guests — Round tables with an open front. The ideal setup for galas, awards nights and hybrid events.
Banquet — 200 Guests — Long and round communal dining tables. A natural choice for weddings, celebrations and sit-down dinners.
Cocktail — 300 Guests — Standing reception style. Ideal for product launches, networking events and mingling.
Layouts are fully flexible. Add a dance floor on request, combine seating styles, bring in a modular stage, or design something entirely bespoke with our events team. The Clarence Room is your blank canvas.
