About the function space
Walk through the 100 year old cast iron gates where antique lead lights illuminate the entry and you are greeted with warm smiles and a lovely ambience.
Fireflies resides in one of Fitzroy North's most historic buildings. Think original wooden floors, 20 ft high ceilings, vintage art, beautiful archways and stunning antique leadlights which nestle beneath outdoor awnings. They don't make buildings like this anymore.
Modernity is not compromised for nostalgia however, and you will find all the conveniences you require when you hire this venue exclusively for you and your guests.
Our house made finger food and selection of fine wines and spirits are unmatched in the area.
Smokers don't despair, as we have a courtyard to cater for you. With rooms to dance, mingle or close off if desired, Fireflies and staff will surely give you a night to remember.
A hop skip and jump away from Brunswick Street and a short 10 minute tram ride from the heart of the CBD, means your after-party is sorted. Taxis and transport are frequent.
It's truly one of the hidden secrets of Fitzroy… or Melbourne for that matter.
