Our Patron, Her Excellency the Honourable Margaret Beazley AC KC, Governor of New South Wales, will be in attendance.

Entrance to the building is via the security gatehouse on Macquarie Street, near the State Library. Security officers will direct you to the building entrance and a staff member will meet you and escort you into the building.
