Birthdays, dinners and launches
Five candlelit rooms in South Yarra, yours alone for your booked hours. Arrivals in the Gallery, dinner at the long table in the Library Room, music by the grand piano and a white studio for photos.
A room that feels like an occasion
Birthdays, engagement dinners, brand launches, creator and influencer events, supper clubs and small celebrations. The whole venue is yours, so there are no other groups and no shared spaces, and one of our team is there on the day.
Bring your own caterer, cake and drinks, style the rooms your way, and add a content creator if you would like the night captured.

Good questions
Can we bring our own food and drinks?

How many guests can you fit?
Up to 40 seated at the long table, or up to 80 standing across the five rooms.
Can we decorate?
Of course, with care for the walls and any works on show. Glitter, confetti, loose petals and sand are the only things we ask you to leave at home.
How late can we stay?
Online bookings run from 8am to 7pm. For a later night, ask us for a quote. We keep things quiet from 10pm, out of respect for our neighbours.
What if we need to cancel or move?
Let us know 7 days or more before and we will move your booking or refund you in full. With less than 7 days notice, we keep half and refund the other half.
