About this space

The venue is an intimate, low‑ceilinged screening room and adjoining bar/lounge finished in dark drapery, leather banquette seating and timber surfaces that create a warm, low‑key palette. Interior lighting sits at a low, warm level suited to projected screenings.

Room features: The venue can play back film and presentation audio through a PA system and fixed speakers for screenings and announcements. Wi‑Fi and air conditioning support production needs, and backdrops plus mirrors are available for basic set dressing.

Best for: Film screenings, private cinema hires, premieres and small special events that combine projection with in‑room audio.

What sets it apart: A heritage‑listed original Paramount Pictures screening room dating to 1940 gives the venue a preserved, historic interior.
