WHY MELROSE

Most Melbourne venues host corporate events around something else. A hotel with a ballroom attached. A restaurant with a room out the back. Melrose was designed for events and nothing else, and you feel it in the parts that usually go wrong: the load in, the parking, the run of the day, the noise limit at 11pm.

You get CBD scale without CBD logistics. 6km from Melbourne Airport, under 20km from the city, direct access off the Tullamarine Freeway, and 180 free car spaces so nobody starts your event circling a block.

The venue was acquired and completely reimagined in 2025 by Andreas and Zoe Skoullos, who designed every detail of the refurbishment themselves.
