What our clients say about Showtime Events Centre

Showtime event group made the lead up to our day and our day the most seamless and easy experience yet. Anything we asked, any query we had, any demand we made was met with a smile and a yes and we felt the love from each one of the team members whether it was someone from the office or someone that was serving us a drink. All the staff on the day were exceptional and we couldn’t have asked for a better night!

Renee & Nic

The best wedding venue not only in terms of location and style, but also an amazingly organised and experienced team. The food and drinks were amazing, with a large variety to choose from. The backdrop of the Yarra also allowed us to take some amazing dusk photos.

Showtime is the perfect versatile venue, for a non-traditional, unique wedding! A modern and contemporary blank space you can completely make your own with styling and decor. With multiple inclusive packages, and flexibility to have what you want, and a great team behind them. We had both our Ceremony and Reception, and they transitioned between the two seamlessly. The whole day came together wonderfully. It is a convenient city location and self-contained for its busy wharf area. Our guests haven’t stopped telling us how much they enjoyed our wedding! Thank-you Showtime Team!
