Workshop venue
ACCO workshops are held in Docklands in the NewQuay precinct. The exact location can vary from workshop to workshop but will always be at or near the Quest NewQuay Docklands or The Sebel Melbourne Docklands. ACCO administration will advise delegates of the exact workshop location prior to attendance.
Group size is limited. ACCO prefers small group workshop education that ensures interaction and maximixes the learning opportunity. See below workshop facility.
ACCO administration is based within the Boyd Building at 1101 / 5 Caravel Lane, Docklands. This office is 100 metres east of the Quest New Quay.
GETTING THERE
Train : We are 15 minutes’ walk from Southern Cross Station. Rural and metropolitan services operate from this, - Melbourne's central train hub.
Air: From Melbourne Airport, the Skybus service will take you right to Southern Cross station with free connections to your hotel.
WHERE TO PARK
We recommend parking at the District Docklands Car Park which is just north of the Quest New Quay. See map above. All day parking here is from $12 and under cover. It is a short walk south down Waterfront Way and then turn left at Caravel Lane.
GETTING AROUND
All trams within Docklands and the Central Business District area are free !There is the Melbourne FREE city circle tram which service has a stop within 100 metres of the foyer of the Boyd building. This service does not start early enough to get to Docklands workshops.There are also the two full service tram routes stop within 100 metres of the Boyd building. Tram 70 runs along Flinders Street before heading to Docklands. Tram 86 runs along Bourke Street before skirting around Etihad Stadium to Docklands. These trams are now also free if you confine your trip to Docklands and the CBD. There are maps at every tram stop to help. These tram routes start well before the workshops start and continue into the night.
WHERE TO STAY
Most of our registrants choose to stay at the Quest New Quay Apartments, the site of the conference centre. Other registrants often choose the Sebel Hotel Docklands 150 metres east of the Quest. However some delegates prefer to stay at less expensive alternatives and walk a little further. Given that all CBD trams to Docklands are free (see above) you can stay at any CBD hotel and get to the Quest New Quay with a free tram that will be at the most two blocks from your hotel.
