Federation Square (or Fed Square, as it called by locals) is at the heart of Melbourne, offering a fusion of arts, events, leisure and hospitality. It is home to cultural attractions including The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia, which houses the world's largest and most comprehensive collection of Australian art; the Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI); Champions Australian Racing Museum and Hall of Fame; and the Melbourne Visitor Centre. Alongside these attractions is your host venue for this event – ZINC. ZINC’s unique location, within Federation Square and on the banks of the Yarra River, boasts a menu of modern, fresh dishes, incorporating the highest quality seasonal ingredients; while floor-to-ceiling windows showcase beautiful views of the sparkling city landscape, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Riverside Park, and the elegant backdrop of the Arts Centre spire and Princes Bridge. ZINC expounds the philosophy that: Great cooking is about selecting the finest quality produce and using it when it is at its best – that is, when it is ‘in season’. Wherever possible, ZINC sources quality Australian produce that is environmentally sustainable. (Included in full Congress registrations. Additional tickets – $150.00 per person.)
