What our clients say about the Hellenic Museum

Our International Women’s Day event for over 140 people was a huge hit with our organisation, with many people commenting on the venue and we were able to work with Showtime to find a package that worked for us and our budget!

Alicia

Very happy with all aspects of working with the Showtime team. It was our first time hosting an event at the Hellenic Museum and working with the Showtime team. From initial contact to execution on the day, the team worked well and ensured our event was a success. More than happy to work with them again, if the opportunity arises. Also, shout out to the chef for the food!

Helen
Perfect location! So breezy on a hot summer day yet elegant and they catered for all dietary requirements!

What our clients say about Aerial

The team at Showtime were totally professional, friendly and helpful from my first interactions on email through until we left Aerial on the night of the function. The location of Aerial was perfect for the 200 guests, with the interstate guests mostly staying in the city and South Melbourne area and Melburnians easily able to catch public transport or park nearby.

Yvonne
Outstanding service from all the staff. Amazing food and atmosphere. We had our daughter’s wedding there, and the whole team created such a memorable, fun, and beautiful experience. We can’t thank you enough for everything you have done for us.
Svetlana O.

The venue is classy with a nice city lights view, with quality fittings, furnishings and bathrooms. Due to having a tight price point, we selected dishes from the limited menu, and the food was a good size, good quality, with the Lebanese-influenced beef in particular being wonderful. The wines were of good quality and well priced. Aerial recommended a good DJ, and the dance floor was full all night.

Aerial is a stunning venue. A special shout out to Alice for being so attentive and accommodating and reducing the stress of wedding planning 🙂
