Get ready for a heartwarming afternoon of readings in a cool, historic cellar - and guess what? It won't cost you a dime (well, almost!)

CLICK HERE TO BOOK YOUR SEAT

Budding poets, writers and lyricists join Melbourne Poets for our monthly Poetry & Prose Meetup! There'll be an opportunity to read your work (if you're brave enough) and listen to others over a drink or two. You don't need to be published; you just need to be passionate about your craft.

So grab a support buddy and come along to our luxe loungeroom hidden away in the 160-year-old bluestone cellars in East Melbourne's Tribeca precinct. We've got great cocktails, back-vintage wines, craft brews and good vibes in a chilled and supportive safe space.

RULES: This is a ticketed event due to limited seating capacity. Your ticket price is offset against any bar drinks and food ordered through the venue on the day. Please ensure each piece is less than 5 minutes for those wanting to read. Depending on attendance and number of readers, there may be multiple opportunities to read. No self-promotion allowed.

GETTING THERE: We recommend you use Public transport or Rideshare. If you decide to drive and/or have a designated driver, 2-hour paid parking is available around Powlett Reserve, Darling Square, and the Fitzroy Gardens. Extended paid parking is available at Care Park at 162 Albert Street, East Melbourne or the Epworth Freemasons Car Park in Gotch Lane off Grey Street.
