The Westin Sydney and Encore Technologies are proud to offer clients the ability to view their event using cutting edge VR (Virtual Reality) Technology.

One of the challenges of booking a venue for event organisers is being able to visualize the venues capabilities as it relates to their specific needs.

The Westin Sydney now offers a fully immersive VR system that clients can use to visualise what their event will look like in their chosen event space. The ability to now ‘be in the room’, with the setup of your choice, helps the event come to life.

The ability to see your event from different angles or view alternative floorplans, sitelines, screen positions and even theming and decorative treatments can all be evaluated prior to the event; taking away the guesswork.

Event Organisers can also receive a custom VR image sent directly to their smart device or desktop; a great tool when not able to visit the venue in person.

Encore Technologies is the leading AV and Events Company in Australia and together with The Westin Sydney’s team of professionals onsite helps bring your event to life. Whether you’re hosting a global conference, a large scale gala dinner, a corporate meeting, charity function or a wedding, we will ensure your event surpasses your expectations.
