Section 8

Great place that I stumbled across on Google Maps. I loved the music which varied every night. Staff was super friendly. This dumb guy from the US was made to feel welcome and resulted in me coming back every night I was in Melbourne to see what the next night offered. Get there early to avoid line (i arrived before 9 to little if any wait). Thanks again!

We absolutely love Section, and you can find us there almost weekly.

You can't go wrong any night of the week! It's always a vibe with amazing talent supplying the tunes.

It's a must for any night out in the CBD but get in early as the line can get massive.

Got a day off and want to get drunk and vibe on music then this is the place .. although it's hard to stay in line sometimes. Dont go one weekends and its too much packed 🔥

Unique and quirky little place hidden away in CBD. Decent drinks and music. A must visit!

The coolest corner of Melbourne is a hotly contested accolade, but for its cosmopolitan clientele, quirky decor, experimental world music and heady atmosphere, Section 8 could well steal the crown. Gays and straights, people of every colour and creed and a combo of DJs and live musicians. Just one of the best places on Earth

coolest little place
i love going here for dancing and clubbing on weekends
the music is amazing

Hands down one of the best spots in the city. An amazing lineup of homegrown legends grace the decks, bringing a vibe unlike any other! Great place to meet genuine and creatives souls, always a cool event going on supporting a creative scene in the city. From Monday to Sunday section stays serving the best vibes in the city.

I absolutely love this place! The cozy atmosphere and live music make the perfect ambiance for a night out with friends or even alone. The bartenders are super friendly and always make the best cocktails. It’s a must try when you are in Melbourne.

Section 8 is the most unique, eclectic, fun, and diverse place. There's a flavour of music to suit all palettes and live performers/artists every day of the week. Section 8 actively celebrates diversity and culture in all forms, and people there are so welcoming and friendly. Love the chill vibes and guaranteed to discover amazing talent there!

A Melbourne classic. Section 8 is perfect spring/summer vibes. Get a beverage from the friendly staff and find a place to sit amongst their quirky, communal pallet seating.

Can get very busy so go early if you are after a pleasant afternoon chilling with friends, or later if you want good drinks, tunes and plenty of company.

Cool laneway bar with pallet seating and fun atmosphere.

Probably the best bar ive been too! I went there alone and had so much fun meeting other people they were really friendly especially the lady dancing by the DJ. Also shoutout to both of the awesome bouncers on duty that night! They were super nice and I would definitely recommend this place to my friends and family visiting the city. Pro tip: come in a little early because it can be busy at night!

Chill vibes and great music. Cocktails are bomb 💣 good place to hangout throughout the week.

Best place to hang in the cbd. There’s always good music

Literally a free music event - best casual vibes with tasty drinks and cocktails! Price for the cocktails is worth it for what you get - no cheaping out on alcohol. The 30 min+ wait is worth it.

Nice little alleyway bar tucked in Tattersall Lane. Music and crowd were pumping and drink reasonable priced. Seats are a little tricky to get when busy but hang around and you’ll eventually get a pallet to park on. Very hip and trendy vibe but welcoming to all. Tucked away near Chinatown so a feed is just a quick stroll away

Cool industrial laneway bar, great cocktails and the cutest dog to greet you as you come in. Made my day being on holidays missing my furnaces. Recommended for chill day hangs.

Best bar in melbourne , the staff really nice and friendly … Good vibes and good music🙌🏻❤✨

Girlfriend and I stopped in for a quick drink as part of our scavenger hunt on Sat 10 Feb

One of my favourite places for a dance, banging drinks and best all round vibes. I LOVE SECTION 8 ❤❤
