Why you'll love The George Ballroom

  • Iconic venue with sweeping city views.
  • The space comes complete with occasional Bordeaux tables, Tiffany dining chairs, white linen, crockery and silver cutlery.
  • Offers both plated and shared dining experiences and are always happy to create tailored packages.

The George Ballroom is back! Can you believe it?! I know, neither can we. After a nine year hiatus and extensive restoration the George Ballroom is back to its former glory, just as it was in its 1930s heyday. This historical event space is located on the first floor of The George Hotel in Fitzroy Street, St. Kilda and has retained its classic and elegant features. You will fall in love with its hand painted ornate ceiling rosettes, stained-glass windows and the whimsical feeling left with you long after leaving this one-of-a-kind venue – a place you thought you could only romanticise over. But now, the Damm Fine Food team can turn your dreams into a reality. This old dame is new again. #theballroomisbackPictures tell a thousand more words, so fall deeper in love by following @georgeballroom on Instagram.

Getting to work with the team at the George was easy, reliable and most of all always timely. The beautiful venue hosted my event and with ease we had everything we needed to make the night a fun and successful one. If you are looking for a 5 star venue in Melbourne for your event, look no further!

We had our wedding reception at TGB and it was nothing short of outstanding. Molly B was so easy to deal with, and just lovely. The venue is stunning in and of itself - a draw card for us. Their contracts state it is sound limited but everyone actually thought the music was really loud (a plus!). Food was great, and we liked that damm fine food held a tasting prior. One piece of feedback - the bridal suite is not suitable / needs more privacy - which we knew prior to booking but it wasn’t going to stop us having our wedding there. If a proper room was built out with privacy and doors not screens, that would be great as we felt we did not get privacy with waiters walking through. Aside from that, loved it, regret nothing! 💒

We did our campaign shoot at the George and couldn’t recommend it more! First, it’s absolutely stunning, and second, the support throughout the day was unparalleled. A big thanks to Gabriel for being present whenever needed! "I would definitely get married here if I had to choose a wedding venue in Melbourne city," said one of our team members. 💍✨

We had our wedding at The George Ballroom and truly had a great experience! Molly our coordinator was amazing! She was on top of everything in the lead up and even on the day, she made sure everything ran smoothly! It's the most beautiful venue and we're so grateful for all the staff that made our day come together so perfectly! Thank you!

We recently hosted a wonderful wedding (ceremony + reception) at The George Ballroom. The space itself is stunning and our guests were full of praise for its heritage beauty and also the generous food servings on the night. Our event manager Victoria was incredibly supportive, responsive and efficient throughout the planning process, and the event staff were also very professional and helpful. We would definitely highly recommend The George for weddings and other celebrations alike.
