Make School Formals and Events Memorable at Melrose Events

School graduations, formals, reunions, and many other similar types of events often mark important points throughout our lives. To mark these events and to make them memorable for all, it’s important to choose the right venue.

Sure, some very small gatherings can take place in private homes or even in a restaurant or public space, but when you’ve got a few dozen (or even hundreds) of attendees, you’ll certainly want to plan ahead and book a venue in Melbourne that meets your specific needs.

Elegant, Versatile Spaces for Your School Formal

Melrose Events proudly hosts many education events in Melbourne in its Grand Ballroom, Hudson Room and Magnolia Room. While the maximum capacity for each room varies depending on its usage, the range for each is as follows:

  • Hudson Room: 150-380
  • Magnolia Room: 180-250
  • Grand Ballroom: 580-1200
  • Grand Ballroom & Magnolia Room (joined): 760-1450

Every room is unique, and each room can be arranged for a banquet, theatre, or cocktail party, as well as be adjusted for multiple layout types for each. Need a long catwalk for a graduation party and space for presenting a diploma or degree certificate to students? The Grand Ballroom with a long catwalk, is ideal for up to 680 attendees. Want a banquet-style layout with around 15-19 tables and around 228 attendees? The Magnolia Room banquet layout might be just right.

There is plenty of versatility for each of our rooms, which means that for small or large gatherings (and everything in between), there’s certainly a right fit for your needs.

At Melrose Events, our experienced team offers full support from planning to the execution of the event itself. All throughout the process, our team is available to answer enquiries you may have, make accommodations for the needs of your attendees, assist with catering, and much more to make your event memorable.
