Bennelong
A fine-dining wedding inside one of the Opera House's sail-shaped shells — curved white ceilings, floor-to-ceiling harbour views, world-class menus.
About Bennelong
Bennelong is the fine-dining restaurant inside the Sydney Opera House — and one of the most unrepeatable wedding venues in Australia. The curved sail-shaped ceiling overhead and floor-to-ceiling glass walls onto Sydney Harbour mean every photograph captures something no other venue can offer.
Hosting up to 120 seated or 220 cocktail-style, Bennelong scales from intimate sit-down weddings to larger celebrations beneath the iconic shells. The award-winning kitchen serves a menu that celebrates Australian produce — degustation-style dinners are a specialty.
The location speaks for itself — Sydney Harbour Bridge framed in the windows, the Royal Botanic Garden steps away, and Circular Quay's ferry terminals just downstairs.
