Venue for a 30th?

quick · Post by **quick** » Mon Mar 02, 2009 8:25 pm

Anyone know of a sweet venue that would suit a private party for up to 100 people or maybe more, needs area for dj and sound and either bar or byo. Everything I can think of is too small....

i was just going by the '100 people' in the first post. toff will not hold 20k unfortunately...

quick · Post by **quick** » Mon Apr 06, 2009 4:51 pm

seeing as Friddles was useless

anyone suggest a good venue in the city or near abouts? I have a few leads, but nothing perfect, so any suggestions would be awesome...

Dude... they've got this bowling alley in Sth Yarra that runs at night. It has a bar. And it has flouro lights and stuff. And get this, they even have Dee Jay's there on weekends!

Hire some lanes and get amongst it!

Public Office used to be remarkabley cheap to hire didn't it? Although I think those days may have passed

Suede on Smith St will let you hire the upstairs bit. Prolly too small for 100 people tho.

Ummm......Dunno, there should be heaps of places tho.

Radio on Gertrude St always seems pretty empty. If you said you were bringing 100 people i reckon theyd close it for you for the night. Does it fit 100? no idea.

... bowls club ?

I had a mate who booked 1 Fitzroy St, St. Kilda... for nothing!

Views of St. Kilda, the Bay etc, just a $300 deposit down - which was 100% refunded. Complete bar, private room and I'm sure you could set decks up there.

nice ideas, Cant get through to Radio... not keen on bowls, Public office would have been sweet...

How long ago was that?

Went there for dinner at xmas when my mum was down and they were useless as dogs balls.
Was highly unimpressed with having to ASK for a wine bucket for my white wine and then secondly watching them sit our wine bucket with our wine on a different, but empty, table away from us argh!

They just did not seem very interested in us being there and there was like 7 of us. They screwed our booking up, I repeated on the phone about half a dozen times the day time and name and they still screwed it up.

^ only a month or so ago...

They weren't there for dinner though. They booked upstairs for a bday pissup.

La Di Da have a downstairs room that you can hire out (if you can stand La Di Da) with decks + bar, although they kick you out at 11 for the "real DJs" to come on, which is rather annoying if most of your friends are well known Melbourne DJs who are happy to play, LOL.

Maybe they got sick of you repeating yourself and did it to you on purpose?
