Raise a Glass to 2025 at Paradox Sydney: Premium CBD Venue for Christmas Parties & Corporate Events
Planning a standout Christmas party, end‑of‑year celebration or corporate event in Sydney’s CBD? Paradox Sydney offers a rare blend of heritage charm, modern facilities and flexible event spaces, while Reit Conferences provides free premium venue sourcing and end‑to‑end event support to make the process seamless.

Located at 27 O’Connell Street, Sydney NSW 2000, Paradox Sydney sits in a beautifully restored historic building with Georgian‑style arched windows, original marble features and an elegant façade. It’s just a short walk from Circular Quay, The Rocks and the Sydney Opera House, and close to major transport links—ideal for both local teams and interstate delegates.
Inside, you’ll find nine versatile event spaces equipped with high‑speed connectivity and modern audiovisual technology. The Marble Room, a pillarless highlight, can host up to around 200 guests for conferences or seated dinners. The Lady Fairfax Room is perfect for private dining and mid‑sized events, while the Sir Warwick Fairfax and Sir James Fairfax rooms are sophisticated boardrooms and breakout spaces. With approximately 338 rooms and 26 suites on site, Paradox Sydney works equally well for single‑evening events and multi‑day conferences.
