The Enmore Theatre

Updated: Oct 11, 2018

The timeless classic loved by all.


Everything you need to know before your night at the Enmore

This nostalgic, intimate venue is a crowd favourite. With good acoustics, a sloped dance floor, onsite bar, vintage feel and vaguely sticky carpet the Enmore Theatre is known for its great classic personality and authenticity. Situated in the inner city alternative heart of Newtown the theatre is a stones-throw from countless great restaurants and bars as well as many other amenities. With a capacity of 1600 the theatre is large enough to hsve a great atmosphere but small enough to still be an intimate show.
