About the function space

Situated in the heart of Chapel Street and the core of Melbourne's nightlife, Circus Bar & Nightclub is the perfect place for any function.

For private parties with style, the Rooftop is perfect. Overlooking Commercial Road, it features sumptuous day beds, a retractable roof with side covers, a 'magic garden' themed private bar, and plenty of room to dance. It is where fantasy and elegance meet luxe vintage circus.

Retract the roof on balmy summer evenings and let your party sizzle, with open air, moonlit ambiance, alfresco fun and loads of atmosphere.

The outdoor heating allows for an equally enjoyable time when the temperature drops.

The club holds an all-hours licence which allows partying until the sun peeks through the cracks. Party upstairs, then head down to the main bar for some big beats.
