The Margaret Whitlam Pavilion is a sought-after venue for weddings, parties, meetings, and events. With its iconic status and stunning surroundings, it provides the perfect backdrop for any occasion.
One of the highlights of the Arboretum is the world-class display of miniature trees and forests, created by some of Australia's leading artists. This unique exhibition is a testament to the creativity and talent of the country's artistic community.
The Arboretum also celebrates and honors remarkable individuals. Melissa Doyle AM, an acclaimed journalist and passionate ambassador to children's charities, was recently recognized with an Australian Hero Tree Dedication in Central Valley.

As we enjoy the wonders of the National Arboretum Canberra, we also acknowledge and pay respect to the Ngunnawal people, the traditional custodians of the ACT. We recognize and appreciate the contributions they and other people or families with connections to the lands of the ACT and region make to the life of this city and this region.

Reviews
"Would be rather small for large weddings but one could not ask for a nicer location."
"Although a sad time there as it was a funeral of one of my very best friends: it was a wonderful venue great views and food. A lovely send off for a special person."
"As a wedding photographer, I see a lot of fantastic venues in Canberra, and The Margaret Whitlam Pavilion is one of the best! The Margaret Whitlam Pavilion is iconic in Canberra for a great reason; some of the best views of Canberra around, easy location, and excellent catering. You'll have no doubt admired the Pavilion from afar whilst driving through Canberra and I can assure you that when you enter it for the first time, it really is breath taking. Few places in Canberra provide such an incredible ceremony space for you to be able to admire Canberra in all of her beauty."
"Fabulous location, great staff. We had so much fun at our party on the weekend.."
"Pretty little place. Good parking and right next to the National Arboretum full stop kids can roll around on the grass hill while waiting"
