Exhibition Park in Canberra, Exhibition venue in Lyneham, Australia
Exhibition Park is a large events venue in Lyneham with multiple buildings and outdoor areas for conferences, exhibitions, markets, and entertainment activities. The Budawang Pavilion is the main indoor space, accommodating gatherings of different sizes and types.

The venue provides ample parking and is easily accessible for visitors with various mobility needs. Plan extra time for exploring, as events and outdoor areas spread across the grounds depending on what is happening that day.
