About Aurora Lab @ Immersive Light and Art

Immersive Light and Art, known as ILA, is an arts venue on Light Square in Adelaide's West End, set behind a 150-year-old heritage facade. Alongside its galleries it runs Aurora Restaurant and a set of spaces for private events. Aurora Lab is its signature event room, with LED screens covering 50 square metres of wall around the guests. The visuals and lighting can shift through the night, show your own photos and videos, or turn the walls into a forest or a night sky. The Lab holds 160 guests for a cocktail event or 72 for seated immersive dining. The Aurora Terrace sits at its entrance for welcome drinks before guests move inside. For bigger celebrations, the restaurant, Lab and terrace can be combined for up to 300 cocktail guests. The restaurant itself seats 90, with a private dining room for 30, and the upstairs ILA Bar takes up to 100. Food comes from the Aurora Restaurant kitchen, with chef's choice and set menus for seated dinners and classic or substantial canapés for cocktail events. Drinks run on consumption or as packages of two to six hours, with paired wines also offered.

Located on level 1, quite a nice bar and a unique space. Live music playing while having some drinks, the bar staff are friendly and attentive.
