About Darrwal Room @ Nyaal Banyul
Nyaal Banyul Geelong Convention and Event Centre sits on Western Beach Road on the Geelong waterfront, looking over Corio Bay. The building was co-designed with Wadawurrung Traditional Owners, and each room carries a Wadawurrung name and story. The Darrwal Room, named for the dingo, is on Level 1. It works as two rooms, Darrwal A at 156 square metres and Darrwal B at 192 square metres, or as one combined space of 348 square metres with adjustable walls. Combined, the room holds 290 guests for cocktails, 190 at banquet tables, 152 cabaret style or 284 in theatre rows. On their own, Darrwal A takes 130 for cocktails or 70 at banquet tables, and Darrwal B takes 160 for cocktails or 90 at banquet tables. The venue offers the room for gala dinners and special events, with natural light and the waterfront behind the tables. A smart lectern, projector and screen, stereo and ceiling speakers and AMX control panels are built in, and wireless microphones, extra screens and streaming can be added. Menus are shaped by regional growers and the coast, with separate cocktail and gala menus. The cocktail menu pairs local drinks and native botanicals with small bites, while the gala menu is a more formal, chef-led showcase. Event planners and technical staff look after each booking. Accessibility features include accessible parking, a Changing Places facility, all-gender bathrooms and an infrared hearing system.

Amazing new conference centre. I was fortunate enough to visit for the associations forum national conference. The food was excellent as well. I should deduct one star for the toilet rolls being around the wrong way in…
