Entire Venue at Cargo Hall
About this space
Cargo Hall is one of the most sought-after locations for a stylish event with some old world industrial charm.
The venue boasts exquisite views across the city skyline and iconic Yarra River, a few minute’s walks from the hustle and bustle of the city centre.
Incorporating modern design while retaining its unique nineteenth-century maritime character, Cargo Hall is a vibrant and refreshing addition to Melbourne’s Event scene.
Situated directly opposite the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, the venue benefits from the local accommodation and public transport options as well as over 2000 adjacent parking spaces.
This pillar-less, fully open space can accommodate up to 220 people for a sit-down event and up to 600 people for cocktails with fantastic views over the river and city skyline.
The raw, industrial heritage of the building shines through in the exposed beams, wide open space, and warehouse feels. Unique characteristics include a contemporary designed suspended mezzanine floor, original trusses, heritage floorboards and classic façade.
An all-weather glass conservatory and abundance of natural light make this the perfect venue for any occasion.
Unfortunately, we do not host 18th birthday celebrations at Cargo Hall, as we have a requirement that all guests be 18 years old or with a guardian.

Great venue with incredible atmosphere. Staff did a great job with our event. We will be back in the future.
Multiple points of communication contact (booking agent, then hand over to venue, then moving it round between several staff to cover leave) was frustrating. We will use this venue again but we will be better prepared at working with this style of communication
The event producers were all very friendly and efficient and I enjoyed working with them. The venue is fantastic and was a great place to showcase Melbourne.
The AV was expensive and the although the techs on the day who supported the event were fantastic and we were happy with the end result the AV manager was at times difficult to work with in terms of their communication style. That said, they were happy to accomodate site visits etc prior to the event which I thought was very helpful. So I think it’s essential to have a clear vision of what you need from the beginning to negotiate best terms.
