Ether, defined in Ayurvedic philosophy as the “space in which everything happens”, is a unique and contemporary business meeting space. This conference and meeting venue is perfect as a space for business events, including meetings, training workshops and more.

Located in the very heart of Melbourne on Swanston Street in the city, Ether is stylish and unique, featuring modern design and furnishings throughout all nine of its diverse meeting rooms. 

Our conference and event facilities are of the highest quality and our service is friendly and attentive. Specialising in catering for small to medium size events we also provide gourmet menus
appropriate for all tastes, dietary needs and budgets.

Ether Convenience and Style

The Ether differences that will ensure your event is a success are:
  • Snack On: Our unique ‘snack station’ concept allows your delegates to choose their own in-room snacks throughout the day, whether it’s jelly beans for a sugar hit, almonds for something healthier or simply refreshing mints.
  • Break Time: When it comes time to break for morning and afternoon tea, your delegates will love our premium range of T2 teas and espresso coffees.
  • Eat Well: Treat your delegates to food that is not only delicious, it’s fresh and healthy too.  When it comes time for lunch, our shared lunch concepts are great for encouraging conversation and networking.
  • Sleep In: Ether is perfectly positioned attached to two hotels, providing accommodation options for all tastes and budgets. The Swanston Hotel, Grand Mercure is a 4.5 star hotel offering contemporary and spacious rooms whilst the 3.5 star Mercure Welcome Melbourne provides great value-for-money accommodation.
  • Chill Out: If you are looking for the perfect venue for your social functions or somewhere to gather post conference, we can offer two very special spaces.  On15, situated on the 15th floor with views across the Melbourne cityscape, is perfect for a cocktail party or dinner.  And Cocoon Bar, a chic and stylish lounge bar, is a great place to host a cocktail party or enjoy a relaxed drink.
  • Wine-Down: After a busy day of conferencing, wind down with a guided wine tasting session in our stylish haven, Cocoon Bar. You won’t want to leave.
  • Be Green: Ether is proud to offer Carbon Neutral Conferences through our association with the Carbon Reduction Institute, at no additional cost to conference organisers.
