News this week: In a letter sent to the Exhibition
& Event Association of Australasia (EEAA), the management agency of
Sydney’s Darling Harbour redevelopment, Infrastructure NSW (INSW), announced
it has terminated negotiations with Sydney Harbour Expo @ Glebe Expo (SHE) for
the creation of temporary exhibition facilities at Glebe Island.
According to Sydney
International Convention, Exhibition and Entertainment Precinct (SICEEP)
Project Director, Tim Parker, INSW terminated negotiations because a
satisfactory arrangement could not be reached despite lengthy discussions.
However, Parker stressed that temporary exhibition facilities will be available
for the 2014 exhibition season.
INSW has reportedly begun negotiations with GL
Events, another company that submitted a bid to build at Glebe Island. The Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre
(SCEC) will be closed in late 2013 for the construction of SICEEP, which is
scheduled to open in 2016.
