NCCA Events
A year-round calendar of business and cultural events — connecting and strengthening the Dutch–Australian business community.
These events are hosted by NCCA partner organisations — not the NCCA directly. Contact the organiser for tickets and enquiries.
Cruise with the Europeans
Grab your sunnies and your business cards : Sydney's biggest European mixer is back on the water. Now in its third decade, Cruise with the Europeans brings together 18 chambers and hundreds of professionals from across the European-Australian business community for one unmissable night on the Harbour.
Step aboard the Starship at King Street Wharf as the sun goes down over Sydney, drink in hand, with over 600 guests ready to catch up, meet new people, and soak up one of the best settings the city has to offer. Two hours of open bar, canapés, and postcard worthy views of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, with an after party from 8:30pm to keep the night going (TBC).
Whether you're catching up with familiar faces or meeting new ones from across Europe, this is the event Sydney's European crowd waits all year for.
