Our brand
Who we are
Our brand is our personality. It’s what
we live inside our doors and what we
bring to Melbourne and the world. It’s
who we are and who we want to be.

MCEC is the home of unconventional.
We are ‘unconventional’ in the way we
think, act and see the world. We do
things a little differently. We bring fresh
ideas and imagination to every event.
We happily turn concepts on their head
to make moments that count for every

We are ‘home’ to people who share
ideas and passion, and to our partners,
customers and visitors. We are at the
heart of our home, Melbourne.
