Sydney Tech Expo is a business-to-business technology event that combines two exhibitions under one roof: the Australian Data Centre Expo and the Enterprise Tech, Cloud and AI Expo. It is aimed at data centre operators, hyperscalers, investors, enterprise technology buyers, government technology providers and IT decision-makers, covering digital infrastructure alongside enterprise cloud, AI and digital transformation. The event runs on 9 and 10 November 2027 at ICC Sydney in Darling Harbour as an in-person, free-to-attend expo. It describes itself as the largest B2B tech expo in Australia, with a programme of 14 summits across seven conference stages and a large exhibition floor. Summit themes include data centre power and cooling, sustainable and sovereign infrastructure, AI agents and automation, cyber security and cloud strategy, and the event forms part of a wider Sydney Tech Week. Visitors can attend summit sessions, explore exhibitor stands and use structured networking, including evening social events. CPD accreditation is available for eligible sessions. As a technology expo in Sydney 2027, the event gives Australian IT and infrastructure professionals a single place to compare vendors and follow how cloud, AI and data centre investment are developing across the region.

Travel questions? See Good to know in the travel guide below.
November lands Sydney Tech Expo in mid-spring, warm without the January heat, and the scale is the thing to plan around: two days, ten thousand-plus attendees and fourteen parallel summits inside ICC Sydney on Darling Drive. Unlike a single-track conference, this one runs as a trade floor, so the practical questions are about pacing an exhibition hall rather than choosing talks. Tumbalong Park sits directly outside for the moments you need to step away.
Sydney Airport (SYD) is unusually close — roughly 20 minutes by taxi to Darling Harbour, or two stops on the Airport Line to Central then a short walk or light rail hop. The L1 light rail runs from Central along Darling Drive and stops at Exhibition Centre, essentially at the door. Opal card or a contactless bank card works on every mode; there is no separate ticket to buy.
Skip the taxi queue — pre-book a fixed-price airport transfer with Welcome Pickups. Exploring beyond the city? compare rental cars on EconomyBookings.

Exhibition halls of this size strain public wifi once ten thousand devices arrive, so having your own data connection matters more here than at a small conference. An eSIM loaded before you fly avoids both the queue and the roaming bill. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
Australian National Maritime Museum. Directly across the water from the exhibition centre, close enough to reach in a lunch break. The submarine and destroyer moored alongside are the highlight and are boarded on a separate ticket. Ninety minutes covers it comfortably; the vessels close earlier than the galleries, so go first.

Sydney Fish Market. A short light rail ride west to Blackwattle Bay, best treated as an early breakfast rather than a dinner plan — trading starts at dawn and winds down mid-afternoon. Buy from the counters and eat outside on the wharf. Expect gulls, and do not leave a plate unattended.
Cockatoo Island. A former shipyard and convict site in the middle of the harbour, reached by ferry from Barangaroo in about twenty minutes. The industrial ruins are left largely as they were, which makes it the least polished harbour destination and the most interesting. Half a day, and check the last ferry back.
Observatory Hill and The Rocks. The oldest quarter of the city, twenty-five minutes on foot north along the harbour from Darling Harbour. The hill above it gives the best free view of the bridge. Go at dusk after the exhibition floor closes, then stay for dinner in the laneways below.
How do I get from the airport to ICC Sydney?
Taxi or ride-hail takes about 20 minutes. By train, take the Airport Line to Central Station, then the L1 light rail to the Exhibition Centre stop, which is beside the venue.
Do I need a car?
No, and parking around Darling Harbour is expensive. Light rail, ferries and walking cover everything in this guide.
What should I expect from the weather in November?
Mid-spring, generally 17–25C, with a real chance of an afternoon shower. Air conditioning inside the halls runs cold, so a layer is worth carrying.
Will I need a visa?
Most visitors to Australia need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authority arranged before departure. Apply well ahead of the event rather than on arrival.
