Empire Studios is a purpose-built events venue on Montague Street in South Melbourne, developed by Paragon Global Investments as a flexible space for corporate and educational functions. The venue can be configured as a 120-seat theatre-style room for presentations and seminars, a 60-seat classroom or banquet layout for more intimate gatherings, or opened up for a 200-person standing cocktail event, with additional set-ups available for exhibitions and product launches. Inside, Empire Studios features a timber feature wall entrance, a line of glass ball pendant lighting and a fit-out designed to give events a polished, contemporary feel. Staging, audiovisual equipment, catering coordination and event design are handled through sister company Audaciously, also part of Paragon Global Investments, which manages everything from lighting and sound through to branding, food truck hire and printed conference material. The venue has hosted coaching and seminar events for Global Coaching & Speaking Authority, led by General Manager Matthew Church, including Learn Grow Do Repeat Summits and various masterclasses, alongside a range of external corporate bookings. Located minutes from the Melbourne CBD and close to public transport, Empire Studios is available for hire year-round, with custom quotes prepared for each booking depending on the day, duration and configuration required.
