ACO Pier 2/3 is home to the stunning, state-of-the-art performance space, The Neilson, which is situated at the heart of the Australian Chamber Orchestra (ACO)’s beautiful new operating base. The award-winning, architecturally designed space is part of the Walsh Bay Arts Precinct, and is surrounded by views of Sydney Harbour.

As well as hosting performances by the ACO, The Neilson – and ACO Pier 2/3’s other venues, the glass-fronted Belgiorno Room and The Studio – is regularly used by leading artists, ensembles and organisations from all around Australia and beyond to present their own performances and events.
