About the Venue

Located behind Flinders St Station on the Yarra River, the venue resides in the historic Banana Alley vaults.

Platform One is comprised of two long, domed tunnels which stretch over 65 metres from Flinders St to the river. The venue is divided into 3 rooms, accommodating up to 680 guests, as well as an outdoor smoking area facing the Yarra.

The Function Room (known as Bar 2) is one of the rear areas of the club and is available during Platform One's club nights as an independent private room. Bar 2 has a private bar, dance floor, seating, excellent club music facilities, and a great party vibe.

With a jetty from only metres from the rear exit, Bar 2's jetty access also offers the ability to incorporate river boats into your events.
