Botanicah the venue is located on Commercial Road on the Prahran + South Yarra Border, just around the corner from iconic Chapel Street. Unassuming from the outside, the venue is noticeable for its dramatic greenhouse roof line, a feature it shares with the courtyard, a sister space joined to Botanicah&rsquo;s main space. It&rsquo;s a short distance from the restaurants, boutique hotels, cafes and clubs that make Prahran the most exciting place in Melbourne. Housed in an&nbsp;old plastic bag factory, now converted into a dramatic greenhouse plant jungle, you can barely glimpse the&nbsp;brick walls&nbsp;and concrete floors and the climbers create a melange of&nbsp;lush textures blanketing&nbsp;the space. Botanicah offers an escape from the city and a chance to connect with nature. The unique atmosphere makes it ideal for special occasions and functions.

Dramatic Greenhouse Event Space

A great small [around +/- 30 people] venue for private functions.
Reasonably appointed with shelving, bar and catering area, tables and seating.
There are no surprises ...  this is a older developed area with parking challenges, older style toilets, struggles with wheelchairs and prams, curfews, no heating. Of course, if you know of these restraints, then you can plan to overcome them, and still be cheerful. 👍😀
Thank you for helping us out on short notice when our original plans were mucked with foul weather.

Good venue, very nature themed with indoor and outdoor area.
