welcome to the press club
About the National Press Club of Australia
For people who shape Australian society, the National Press Club is Australia’s most recognised vehicle, an icon chosen for major statements and for initiating change.
Whether the issue of the day is political, economic, corporate, diplomatic
, military or societal, the National Press Club plays a significant role in Australian Society.
The National Press Club is an iconic institution with membership made up of the influencers and decision makers of Australia; be they Federal or State Parliamentarians, political advisors, Government Heads of Departments, diplomatic community, academia, legal and other professions, and, quite clearly, the foundation members - journalists - including the Federal Parliamentary Press Gallery plus everyday thinking Australians - many of whom are leaders in their own communities.
The National Press Club of Australia was established by journalists, based in Canberra, to provide a genuine national forum for discussion 
of the issues of the day by the personalities who help shape them. Through the National Australia Bank Address the Press Club has developed a reputation nationally and internationally as Australia’s leading forum for the discussion of issues and debate on public policy in a lively, informative and entertaining format.
The National Press Club is Australia’s best known institution for informed discussion and debate, and has a history spanning nigh on 40 years.
