The Capital - Shades Bar — Bendigo, VIC. Shades Bar is a small first-floor event space within The Capital theatre complex at 50 View Street, Bendigo. Its operator's detailed capacity table lists a 36-square-metre bar with a standing/cocktail range of 30–50, theatre arrangement 20–30, and classroom or boardroom layouts of 10–15. The Capital also houses larger performance and banquet rooms; their capacities must not be applied to Shades Bar. The first-floor bar normally services theatre audiences and may be used in conjunction with events, so external exclusive-hire terms and food/beverage staffing need approval from the venue team. Check the current availability, permitted uses, fees and equipment inclusions with the operator before making a booking.
