Great Hall of the University of Sydney

The Great Hall was officially opened to the public on the 18 July 1859. A grand festival of music was held over a week to commemorate the opening of the buildings on Grose Farm. Over the past 150 years, the Great Hall has been used for a wide variety of events including, conferring of degrees, musical and dramatic productions, banquets, public lectures, book launches, balls, exams, commemoration, memorial services, antique fair, and so much more. Pendant luminaires and suspension accessories developed by 3S lighting are suspended under the timber truss roof and blend in with the background to provide functional light for the interior as well as illumination to highlight the roof structure details that were previously not visible.
