The distinctive design of Spiegel Haus Melbourne means that some seats may have a partially obstructed view of the stage. This could mean that certain elements of the performance or sections of the set are not always fully visible from these locations. These seats are priced to reflect their view. Keep in mind that what is considered a restricted view for one production may provide a great vantage point for another, depending on the performance layout and set design.
You can view our seating maps soon! Stay tuned for our full announcement.
Please note: Maps are intended as guides only, and seating layouts may change depending on the event or production.

Spiegel Haus does not have a set dress code. Most guests come in smart casual attire, though you’re welcome to dress up if you’d like to make it a special occasion. Our priority is that you’re comfortable and able to enjoy the show but we do ask that clothing and footwear are appropriate for a public venue.
We recommend arriving at least 30 minutes before your performance to enjoy our bars and rooftop area and soak up the pre-show atmosphere in our beautiful foyer.
If you arrive late, our front of house team will assist you. You may be asked to wait in the foyer or watch the performance on screens until you can be seated at a suitable break, or you may be placed in alternate seats temporarily. Latecomer policies vary by performance.
We welcome guests of all ages to Spiegel Haus. Each performance may have its own age recommendations or content advisories, which you can find in the event details on our website to help decide if it’s suitable for your child.
