We are beyond grateful to have received the Melbourne Fringe VENUE OF THE YEAR award. An absolute stunning combination of all of the incredible artists, producers, crew, techs (often the artists themselves), bar staff and all of the audiences who came to support over 20 events across 3 weeks in our humble little Room 7 theatrette loungeroom.

Hugs and love and big thanks to the following artists/events and all who spoke and performed in various lineup shows! 

This Festival is for the community, by a community filled with passion, expression and open access, and we adore it! Thank. YOU. 

We would also like to shout out to the judges made up of artists and industry who donate their time to see an endless amount of shows during the Festival. It’s a massive undertaking and it is so appreciated. 

Go team Grouse!
