A historic venue available to book

 

Our home since 1992, Waterside Workers Hall was originally built by the Waterside Workers Federation. Since the building’s foundations were laid in 1926 it has been central to Port Adelaide’s cultural life, with unionists, activists, First Nations people, artists and many others all holding a special connection to the Hall. Vitals is honoured by our custodianship of Waterside Workers Hall and its continued use as a place of theatre and art making, activism, community gathering and cultural democracy.
