The Catholic Leadership Centre is positioned in East Melbourne, just moments away from the city’s vibrant centre. There’s always something going on, and with the location in the midst of multiple transport options, you can take advantage of all the city has to offer.

Close to everything, far from ordinary.

Ever-convenient, trams have been a defining feature of Melbourne for over 100 years. And with a tram stop on the doorstep, your event attendees can experience this charming way of discovering the city. There are also several public car park facilities located within walking distance.

The buzz of Richmond – with its Asian food quarter, bars and cafés – is just around the corner, and eclectic Brunswick Street, Fitzroy, is a short stroll away.

Or, if the city beckons, it’s just a five-minute ride on the tram. You’ll discover Melbourne’s famous cafés, restaurants, lush botanic gardens, on-trend fashions, inspiring galleries and museums and iconic sporting events.

We’re one of the only purpose-built conference facilities with accommodation onsite in Melbourne, featuring 45 contemporary furnished rooms, and a large informal Guest Lounge for exclusive use by guests staying at the venue.
