The Terrace at The Rawson
Terrace at a Bar · Semi-private area
About this space
The Terrace at our venue offers convenient access via Circular Quay West, featuring an inviting stairwell entrance. This expansive space is equipped with a retractable roof, providing flexibility for various weather conditions. For a more comprehensive experience, The Terrace can be seamlessly connected with the Conservatory, which boasts a fully stocked bar.
Considering the maximum capacity of the entire terrace is 110 guests, we recommend booking both the Conservatory and Terrace for larger groups. Not only does this ensure ample space for your guests, but the Conservatory's dedicated bar facility enhances the overall experience for events of significant size.
THE TERRACE DOES NOT HAVE ITS OWN BAR.
