We offer subsidised rehearsal space for circus companies and professionals. We understand the financial challenges faced by artists and independent companies.
We have two spaces available to book, the main training space and the front community room. You can choose to book either or both, and also let us know whether you require exclusive use of the space or are happy to share with other circus companies. You can view pictures and specifications of the spaces at the bottom of this page.
You can see information about the accessibility of the space and view a wayfinder video of Women’s Circus here.

Our venue is able to be open 7am – 11pm Monday to Friday and 7am – 9pm Saturday and Sunday. However due to our classes the space is often only available 11am to 3:30pm Monday – Friday and after 2:30pm on weekends.

Rates for hours between 9am – 5pm weekdays:
Outside of these hours an additional fee of $57 will be charged per hour for venue supervision.
If cost is a barrier for you, we are always happy to discuss. Please reach out to info@womenscircus.org.au
Exclusive Use Residency:
Bookings for either our main space or community room to rehearse or develop work in a focussed environment. Work of Progress showings (or similar) can also be supported, and where possible we can also offer a hot desk in the office for a production manager or producer (or similar).
Shared Rehearsal Space:
Booking for individuals, collectives and companies to train and rehearse. The space is shared, and bookings will be monitored to ensure the space doesn’t get overcrowded. Depending on size of companies/number of artists and their needs, we imagine 2-3 companies could be using the space at a time.

Community Room
