About Playhouse Events
Playhouse Events is a family-run event space at 9 Sloane Street in Maribyrnong. It is hired out as a private venue, so whoever books it has the whole place for the day. The room is designed to look finished even when it is empty. Plastered arches, pale timber floorboards and soft LED lighting set the tone, and many hosts add a backdrop, balloons or styled tables on top. The hire includes 70 chairs, tables, high tables and high chairs, so most parties need no extra furniture. Three large split systems handle heating and cooling, four Bluetooth speakers cover the room, and a bathroom with a change table sits on site. For children's birthdays, the business hires out its own soft play pieces, ball pits and bouncy castles. They are stored away when not booked, which keeps the room clear for baby showers and grown-up gatherings too. There is no in-house catering. Families bring their own food or a caterer, and the kitchenette has a fridge for platters, cake and drinks. The standard booking runs from 7am to 7pm, and a late option extends the event until 11pm. Venue walkthroughs can be arranged before booking, and staff can set out tables and chairs on request. Send an enquiry to book.
