WELCOME TO NEW GUERNICA
HISTORY
Before New Guernica was born, there was Club F4 in 2001. The concept of New Guernica was brought to life in that same CBD space in 2009 and became a residence as a stalwart in the Melbourne and international club scene. Our history includes long term weekly nights such as our weekly Thursday night rave ritual, plus rotating nights and events hosted by a variety of promoters on Fridays & Saturdays. We pride ourselves on our friendly staff and owners who are committed to providing a safe, fun & inclusive party environment
We always strive to create a memorable experience for anyone comes through our doors and have welcomed a variety of Melbourne, interstate and international audiences in our commitment to building the ever-thriving Melbourne nightlife. It’s fair to say that those all night sweaty benders within the confines of our club environment have helped set the tone for Melbourne’s late night dance community.
NG has been a dedicated platform for many of Melbourne’s elite producers & finest DJs that have graced our battered-up organ DJ console over the years. We are proud to have hosted the very best DJ’s, & producers at the top of their game with some of the most memorable nights Melbourne has seen.
So, so many local and international artists have played in our space since 2009, we thought we’d just drop a handful here.

SUPPORTING LOCAL ARTISTS & THE MELBOURNE MUSIC COMMUNITY
At New Guernica, we as a team place a huge importance in doing our bit to support and nurture local talent. We pride ourselves that some of Melbourne’s most respected DJs and artists have cut their teeth in our humble Nightclub spanning all these years.
Some starting their career at New Guernica, has led them to move overseas and cracking the international music and club scene. Others have started off at New Guernica and are now running some of the coolest parties in Melbourne while others are involved in some of Australia’s most respected festivals.
We wish to continue making our contribution to our beloved music and arts scene. We are constantly welcoming emerging artists to send us mixes and we encourage crews who wish to put on parties to contact us.
