It's been announced today that Sydney's International Convention Centre has been renamed.
The venue, which opened in December 2016, will now be known as the First State Super Theatre, with a naming rights deal locked in with the superannuation company for the next 10 years.
"We are delighted to be strengthening our partnership with First State Super, an existing equity partner of ICC Sydney, through the naming rights agreement," said ICC Sydney CEO Geoff Donaghy.
"Their increased investment in the project is a clear sign of confidence in our operation and a result of the reputation we’ve built for the venue."
"We see many synergies between our two companies, particularly our razor sharp focus on building the best possible teams to service our delegates, patrons, members and partners. While we have one of the most magnificent venues in the world, on one of the most spectacular harbours, it is people who ensure successful events and visitor experiences every day at ICC Sydney.
"We will work collaboratively with First State Super to ensure their members, and all of our patrons, enjoy exceptional experiences at the newly named First State Super Theatre."
"ICC Sydney is internationally renowned for the quality of its venues, people and culture," added First State Super CEO Deanne Stewart.
"It’s an investment that is delivering great returns for our members and the economy, and it’s an asset that our members can feel proud to own. The First State Super Theatre is at the heart of the Sydney community, and we’re proud to be here."
First State Super Theatre currently has shows locked in for The 1975, Elton John, Steve Martin & Martin Short and more.
