The soaring original ceilings and timber floors combine with modern laser-cut LED wall screens to create an enchanting mix of the old and new. With riverfront views and award-winning service, this venue attracts high-end weddings.
Showtime Events Centre is a highly sought after wedding venue located in the heart of South Wharf with Yarra River frontage.

A restored warehouse with the perfect balance of industrial-chic and grandeur, you can implement your unique style and aesthetic into the space.
“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.” Olivia J
The visual aspects of Showtime Events Centre display a seamless combination of industrial charm and high-end furnishings. High ceilings, exposed beams and lighting rigs, and the stripped-back industrial aesthetic is complemented by the show-stopping chandelier, versatile laser-cut LED wall panels, and elite events capabilities.

It's a garden setting. We want to allow better mingling
Showtime Events Centre
Good afternoon,
When booking your dream day with Showtime Event Group, you have a dedicated Wedding Producer looking after you and supporting you with your planning. They will create your floor plan and support you with a template for the seating arrangements. On long tables, it's nice to have couples sitting next to each other so they can look opposite the table and mingle with other couples.
