FAQs about Top Rehearsal Studios in Melbourne
Costs in Melbourne for rehearsal studios can vary quite widely depending on the standard of the studio. For a basic rehearsal studio, you can expect to pay $50 to $75 per session. These sessions are offered in 4- to 8-hour blocks, and most studios are open during both the day and the evening. For weekends, expect to pay on the higher end of the price scale. Some recording studios offer rehearsal space as well, and these can be slightly more expensive. These studios will range from $80 to $100 per session. (All data from Tagvenue.)
Start your search for a rehearsal space among South Melbourne streets near the Docklands or South Yarra. If this location is too difficult to access, consider heading south to the neighbourhood near Richmond for several great options. You may also find some excellent rehearsal spaces nearby, just south of the Melbourne Zoo. On the other side of the park, check out the spaces in Coburg and Thomastown that are focused on music rehearsal. If you would prefer to stay in the suburbs, explore options in Carrum Downs or away from the beach towards Rowville or Ravenhall.
When choosing a rehearsal studio, you may find that the included equipment will vary quite a bit depending on the type of space you have chosen. A music rehearsal space should be soundproofed and may consist of instruments, amps or cables, or at least have some that can be hired for a small fee. A performance rehearsal space such as a dance studio or blank canvas space, may provide some furniture or basic fit-out and should have a built-in sound system. If you expect a large group to attend, you may want to seek a studio that offers on-site parking for convenience.
If you are interested in small dance studios for your individual rehearsals, you can check out Studio 2 at CODE Oakleigh, the calisthenics studio in Bentleigh, and Rain & Lucky in Fairfield.

- Plan ahead: Know your material and session goals before stepping into the studio.
- Check the fit: Make sure the space suits your group size and movement needs.
- Confirm equipment: Bring your own gear if needed—but check first if the venue provides mics, PA systems, or lighting.
- Storage & access: Need to leave gear overnight? Ask about secure storage and ground-floor or elevator access.
Record your session: Even a quick phone recording can help you catch areas to improve.
