About PHIVE

5 Parramatta Square

PHIVE is Parramatta’s new community, cultural and civic hub, located in the heart of Parramatta’s CBD.

It’s a space to learn, be inspired and explore something new. A space to connect with the community, and find local services. A space to meet, collaborate and do business. And a space to immerse yourself in cultural experiences or enjoy a bite to eat.

PHIVE is an architectural icon, with a bold design by award-winning French architect Manuelle Gautrand, in partnership with Australian architecture firms Lacoste + Stevenson and DesignInc. It’s a truly smart building, with sustainability credentials allowing it to be net zero carbon from day one.

Parramatta is Sydney’s thriving Central City; home to a rich Indigenous history, a rapidly growing population, and a diverse mosaic of residents. Sitting at 5 Parramatta Square, PHIVE is a central part of the vibrant, emerging Parramatta Square precinct, with cafes, restaurants, shopping and incredible public art.

Over six levels, PHIVE is a destination for community, culture and services, including:

• The brand new City of Parramatta Library, with an extensive book collection, digital resources, dedicated Children’s Library, and study areas.

• An exciting program of events and exhibitions. 
• Community hub and creative spaces for gathering, creating, studying and connecting.
• City of Parramatta customer contact centre and visitor services.
• The new City of Parramatta Council Chambers, Parramatta’s central seat of governance.
