Space overview
Melbourne Fringe’s year-round home for independent artists, for workers and for people who like to party!
Common Rooms is a meeting place housing a licensed performance space and a salon, for one-off and regular events, including live music, performance, comedy, cabaret, dance parties, spoken word, workshops and rehearsals. We’re a cultural enterprise, which means that we use bar sales from commercial events to support local artists with opportunities to test their ideas and reach new audiences. We offer a vibrant year-round program of accessible performances and events at Trades Hall, ensuring everyone can discover the best emerging and independent artistic talent. Fringe Common Rooms is a culturally and physically safe space for our community, including LGBTIQ+, First Nations, people who are Deaf or with disability. We welcome all artists and creative people, as well as the residents of Trades Hall, workers and members of the union movement. Get in touch for more information on putting on a show, accessing affordable rehearsal space or have your next function with us!
Located in Melbourne’s iconic Trades Hall, in the heart of Carlton and just a stone's throw from Melbourne CBD.
