Sydney Trocadero, Concert hall in George Street, Sydney, Australia

The Trocadero featured a floodlit tower made of Hawkesbury River sandstone and an entrance vestibule with marble floors and polished granite walls.

Opening in 1936 during the Great Depression recovery, the Trocadero operated for 35 years until its closure in 1971, when it was demolished for a cinema complex.

The venue housed the resident Trocadero Orchestra under Frank Coughlan's direction and the All Girl Trocadero Band, presenting jazz, swing, and dance performances.

The dance hall accommodated 2,000 people and hosted university formals, awards ceremonies, trade exhibitions, fashion shows, and the early Miss Australia finals.

Queen Elizabeth II, the Queen Mother, President Lyndon B Johnson, and Prince Charles attended functions at this entertainment venue during its operational period.
