Luna Park Venues, one of Sydney’s premier function and entertainment precincts, was delighted to be selected to host the inaugural debut of Advertising Week Asia Pacific international marketing conference over four days in July-August 2018.

Advertising Week APAC joins a global network of events all held in iconic spaces in New York, Tokyo, Mexico City, and London.

This year was the 25th global edition of the conference, putting Sydney and Luna Park Venues on the international stage. The event highlighted the creative diversity of hosting an event inside a fun park, seeing the upmost attention to detail in everything from the culinary menu to the event activation, proving that the Park can be transformed into more than a function centre, no matter what the brief.

In a full park takeover, the renowned marketing event of the year saw 4,000+ attendees head to the iconic fun park and experience four days of industry knowledge through seminars, conferences and workshops. Luna Park provided the perfect backdrop for the marketeers to inspire creativity and out of the box ideas, all whilst overlooking the stunning Sydney Harbour and Harbour Bridge.

Advertising Week owned Luna Park exclusively, making full use of all venues within the precinct including the Crystal Ballroom for standing room only conferences, the Sunset Room for an exhibition of supplier booths and the Big Top for the event wrap party, with 500 guests networking with likeminded peers, in the multipurpose space.

Advertising Week Global CEO, Lord Matthew J. Scheckner, was thrilled with the running of this year’s event: "Just an outstanding professional performance. No drama. Adults all around. Problems solved. Seamless execution. Promises kept. Partners happy. All silky smooth. What more could one ask for?" Scheckner said.

Much to the delight of attendees, Advertising Week sponsors challenged the norm with their creative use of space including a container style activation with VR technology by Facebook in the park’s piazza, an Instagram activation on the historic carousel ride and a Ferris Wheel high tea activation, hosted by Google.

Advertising Week sees industry professionals come together throughout the Asia Pacific region, for a week of powerful and inspiring conversations across the marketing, advertising, technology and creative spaces. The events cater to media, advertising and PR professionals.

Luna Park Venues deliver high-quality service, harbour-side views and a world-class culinary team, catering for multiple cuisines and dietary requirements.
