About Rooftop Terrace & Bar @ Sora Rooftop Bar
Sora Rooftop Bar is on level 9 at 285 Clarence Street, in the western CBD between Wynyard and Town Hall. Its rooftop terrace and bar is a semi-private area framed by elevated skyline views, set up for a lively, music-led party rather than a quiet sit-down. The interior is club-style: dark floors, backlit stone panels, slim banquettes, metal detailing and low LED lighting. A staffed bar serves cocktails, with flexible tables and chairs and an open standing area that works as a small dance floor. It holds up to 130 standing or 70 seated, with rooftop glazing letting in natural light and air conditioning for comfort. The standout is sound: a dedicated installation lets you bring your own DJ, with built-in PA speakers and hardwired connections for live sets. The kitchen serves Japanese-inspired food with extensive vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options. At an $11,000 minimum spend it's a premium booking, suited to a big birthday, a company celebration or a launch.

Sora has absolutely no business being this good. Perched on top of Nelson House in the CBD, the views alone are worth the trip up, but then you walk in and the fit out stops you in your tracks. Warm, considered, nothing…
