Ernie Cropley Pavilion
The Ernie Cropley Pavilion is the perfect venue for your special event, from weddings and birthday celebrations, to conferences and seminars.
The Pavilion is located in the grounds of the Parkville campus and is steeped in rich sporting tradition. It is the main facility for the University’s Cricket and Football clubs with a heritage listed social room (1906), flanked by the University’s historic colleges.
