Venue Settings

Bold, versatile, and rich in character, 3Danks is a striking industrial-style venue set within a former paper mill in the heart of Waterloo. It exudes a dramatic urban charm that’s both raw and refined.

A standout feature of the space is its original overhead gantry crane—a powerful nod to its industrial heritage that adds an unforgettable visual edge. The clear-span layout offers complete flexibility, making the venue an ideal canvas for brand activations, product launches, cocktail receptions, creative workshops, screenings, and private celebrations.

Suspended above the main space is an 80sqm mezzanine that overlooks the main floor—ideal for VIP lounges, control hubs, bar areas, or simply a unique perspective on the event below. Whether styled up or stripped back, 3Danks delivers an immersive and adaptable atmosphere with impact.
