Where Melbourne comes to play at competitive speed.
A 24-seat esports arena and console lounge on Rose Street, built for ranked grinders, couch co-op crews, and weekend tournament runs. Reserve a battlestation, book a private pod, or bring your squad.
Eight years of building Fitzroy’s competitive scene.
We started as a two-PC setup in a Rose Street warehouse and grew into one of inner-Melbourne’s busiest gaming venues. Every upgrade has been driven by the players who show up night after night.
- 2016
The Rose Street doors open
Six PCs, a secondhand couch, and a hand-drawn ladder board. Our first Friday tournament drew fourteen locals and a lot of instant noodles.
- 2019
The arena expands to 24 rigs
We knocked through the back wall, added the acoustic-panelled main floor, and hosted our first 128-player regional qualifier.
- 2022
Console lounge & coaching wing
PS5 and Switch pods arrived alongside a dedicated coaching room, launching our first structured eight-week bootcamps.
- 2025

The crews who make Rose Street loud.
Booked the clan row for our weekly Valorant scrims and never looked back. The 240Hz rigs are genuinely a level above anything I have at home, and the fibre ping is unreal.

Did the eight-week Rocket League bootcamp and jumped from Gold to Platinum 2. The VOD reviews were brutal in the best way. Coach actually remembered my mistakes week to week.

Ran my partner’s 30th here as a FIFA tournament in the console lounge. The staff handled the whole bracket and kept the snacks coming. Easiest party I have ever organised.

As a streamer the creator booth is perfect — dedicated uplink means no dropped frames mid-broadcast. I stream three nights a week from here now.

Questions before you drop in.
Walk-ins are welcome whenever we have free rigs, but weekends and Friday nights fill fast. We recommend booking a battlestation or console pod online for anything after 6pm. Clan rows of five or more should always be reserved in advance.
Every battlestation ships with Valorant, League of Legends, CS2, Rocket League, Apex Legends, Dota 2, and Fortnite ready to go. You can also log into your own Steam, Riot, and Epic accounts, and we can install a specific title on request with a little notice.
Arena PCs start at A$12 per hour, with discounted three-hour and full-day blocks. Console pods are A$15 per hour and seat up to four players, so split between a group it works out to a few dollars each.
Absolutely — private events start at A$450 and we handle seeding, refereeing, shoutcasting, and the live standings wall. We can support up to 128 players and tailor the format to your group, from casual FIFA cups to full esports brackets.
Players of all ages are welcome during daytime hours. Under-15s need a guardian present, and titles rated MA15+ or R18+ are restricted according to Australian classification. After 9pm the arena skews to an 18+ crowd on tournament nights.
Book a seat or ask us anything.
Tell us what you’re planning — a solo session, a clan night, a tournament, or a bootcamp spot — and we’ll get back to you within one business day.
