Rydges Melbourne

Whether you’re planning a gala dinner, launch, conference or wedding, our largest event space is perfect for when you want to take Centre Stage. With its breathtaking vaulted ceilings, Centre Stage can accommodate up to 250 seated guests or 500 for a cocktail style event within the main ballroom. From the moment your guests arrive, impress with stunning views of Exhibition Street and Her Majesty's Theatre from the exclusive pre-function bar.

With an abundance of natural light, and overlooking Her Majesty’s Theatre, the Meeting Place can host up to 300 guests cocktail or theatre and 220 seated. Meeting Place is fitted with divider walls with the ability to create four private function rooms for any configuration of your choice. Whether you're hosting a dinner, cocktail party, exhibition or delivering a presentation, the picturesque windows allow abundant natural light and offer a view of Melbourne’s theatre precinct and the gateway to Chinatown, the quintessential Melbourne setting.

Bathed in natural light and framed by floor-to-ceiling windows, the Terrace Rooms offer a flexible, modern setting in the heart of Melbourne. Perfect for meeting rooms, private dinners or cocktail events, the space can be styled to suit any occasion, from intimate gatherings to larger-scale functions. Each room is equipped with 75-inch LCD screens, ideal for presentations, digital displays or immersive content. Surrounded by greenery and the buzz of the city below, you can elevate your event even further by expanding into the Bossley Rooftop, a breezy open-air oasis featuring lounge seating, lush planter boxes, ambient lighting, and full-length awnings to keep guests comfortable day or night. Perfect for celebrations of up to 350 guests, it features lounge seating, an indoor dance floor, and awnings with heating for those cooler Melbourne nights.

In Bossley’s opinion, if you’re going to throw a feast, it should be nothing short of legendary. For smaller groups, it’s all about Little Bossley. Start at her dedicated entrance, where you can usher your guests into your communal table for fourteen (after a welcome drink at the private bar, that is).

This chic urban private dining room is a nod to Bossley’s bold opinions and signature style, synonymous with the city she loves. The Private Dining Room offers an intimate atmosphere with seats for 44, all with views of floor-to-ceiling wine cellars and a presentation-ready TV.

For an epic arrival, combine the two private dining rooms. Start at Little Bossley’s dedicated entrance for cocktails and canapés, before moving to the main event in Private Dining Room. Bossley is known for being a little outrageous, so you can expect extra attention and all the finishing, not matter your occasion.

If bigger is better (and as Bossley would say, ‘when is it not?’), Bossley Restaurant offers a stunning setting for larger affairs. Whether it’s for wining or dining, business dinners or big birthdays, working lunches or intimate parties, anything goes at Bossley. Not matter what, you’ll feel right at home and so will your guests. And when they ask how you even found this place? Tell them Bossley sent you…
