Our SPaces

Configured to Match your Needs

Whether you’re hosting an intimate networking evening, a brand launch, or an end-of-year celebration for hundreds, ARQ offers three versatile venues — each designed to deliver a seamless blend of sophistication, technology, and atmosphere.

  • Arena — up to 700 guests. The main floor. Full production, big-room energy, built for the whole-company party.
  • Basement — 400 to 500 guests. A club floor with its own character. Ideal for mid-size teams that still want the full night out.
  • Trash Alley — up to 150 guests. Open-air laneway space. Perfect for drinks and canapés before the dance floor opens.
  • VIP Room — up to 60 guests. A private corner for leadership drinks, award winners, or the after-hours crew.

Production & Inclusions

In-house AV, lighting & bar. Zero build cost.

ARQ runs the kind of room brands used to build from scratch. Lighting, sound and LED already rigged, two club floors, a VIP space, and a photographer’s dream of a room. OPPO launched here. Your activation or wrap party can too.

  • Lighting, sound and LED pre-rigged — plug your content in, don’t build from zero
  • In-house bar and catering, scaled to your run sheet
  • Branding and theming opportunities across every space
  • Technical team on site, familiar with the room
  • One floor or the full venue, up to 1,000 guests
Others who used ARQ

OPPO launched here

When OPPO wanted a Sydney launch, they didn’t hire a warehouse and spend the budget making it look like somewhere. They booked ARQ — a room with a name, a look, and 26 years of Oxford St behind it. Photographers love it. Guests remember it.

Why ARQ

A Venue with a Name, not Just a Room for Rent

Twenty-six years on Oxford St. Thousands of nights. From community events to brand launches (OPPO launched here), ARQ has hosted the lot. When your invite says ARQ, people already know it’s a good night.

Dimly lit nightclub interior with blue stage lighting, round tables and high stools on polished wooden floor.
