Photography
We welcome visitors to capture memories of their visit, but photography at this site is carefully managed to protect both the experience and the safety of everyone. By entering, you agree to follow our Photography Conditions of Use.
- Casual photography is limited to handheld devices only. Tripods, lighting rigs, reflectors or other professional equipment are not permitted.
- Please ensure visitor safety and access at all times—photography that blocks stairways, doorways, or pathways is not allowed.
- Disruptive photography, such as staging shoots, interfering with exhibits, or interrupting other visitors’ enjoyment, will result in being asked to stop immediately or to leave the premises.
- To keep the space welcoming for all, our team may enforce these conditions at any time.
- Photoshoots or filming that require exclusive access, professional equipment, set-up time, or are for commercial, staged or promotional purposes must be booked in advance through our Venue Hire team.
Venue Hire
Conveniently close to the city, Elizabeth Bay House is ideal venue for elegant business lunches, cocktail parties, dinners or events; its outstanding architecture and positioning also make it a highly desirable location for smaller, more intimate wedding ceremonies and receptions, including the increasingly popular cocktail-style wedding celebrations.
