Music and arts under one big historic roof, Bella Union is one of Melbourne most treasured hotspots.

Editorial


Nothing beats the patriotic giddiness you feel when you step through the doors at the Bella Union Trades Hall. Formally a place that inspired justice and equality for the good people of Melbourne, the hall has now been transformed into one of Melbourne's coolest performance spaces. Bella Union offers several venues and spaces and regularly features a multitude of different acts. From comedy galas and stand-up shows to live music, productions and fundraising events, the Bella Union Trades Hall is like no other venue.

With each space carrying a distinct historic feel it's hard not to fall in love with this place. The Old Council Chambers room which once hosted the Trades Hall council meetings is now an intimate studio theatre, the Quilt room once used for the storage of Union banners is now a cosy space suitable for acoustic acts or spoken-word performances and the New Ballroom sports a vibrant atmosphere more suited to theatre-productions.

The ever popular Trades Hall bar is also a nugget of wonder at Bella Union. With a certain diplomatic charm, this dynamic bar is always packed. Historic nostalgia combined with the raw arts edge of some of Melbourne's best talent, makes Bella Union simply grand.
