The Members’ Bar was long restricted to parliamentarians and their guests only. Retaining the original timber panelling and the beautiful skylight, installed in 1946, the space has virtually remained untouched through the eras. It features a heritage baby grand piano, available for events at no additional cost. The Members’ Bar is highly recommended for its timeless atmosphere and vintage aesthetic – perfect for one to reminisce back to the time when Australia’s elite enjoyed their cognacs and cigars in one of the last remaining heritage-listed bars in Australia. The Members’ Bar is perfect for: Cocktail Party venue Canberra | Networking venue Canberra | Corporate Function venue Canberra | Christmas Party venue Canberra
