LUX Nightclub Melbourne

This venue was average, nothing too extravagant. I had a couple of issues, particularly regarding security and the drink situation. I anticipated using a $100 gift card for drinks, but the bartender informed me it couldn’t be used for alcoholic beverages, which seemed a bit impractical. Additionally, my friend’s bottles were confiscated, with the assurance they would be stored safely, yet they were missing by the end of the night, likely discarded by the security guard, which was unexpected. Retrieving my bag became a hassle, as the main security guard seemed unhelpful and dismissive, pushing me aside. Thankfully, the other staff members eventually assisted me. Overall, the place is okay, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it.

I HAVE been going to Lux for YEARS, promoting different events for this Lux club, and recently DJ FRIDAY was one of the organisers for “Encore” NIGHT. I had been physically assaulted by a man who happened to be friends with DJ FRIDAY. He had physically assaulted me because he was declined by one of my friends who continue to say no she does not want this man in her presence. I had pushed him away and de-escalated the situation between this man and my friend. However he continued to come in our booth, and physically assaulted my friend hence why I stood up and pushed him away to defend my friend from him. SECURITY DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING they let this man stay in the club after he assaulted two woman. Half the club at the time was shocked that NO SECURITY was there when the assault had taken place and when they did know what had happened, they DID NOT KICK THIS MAN OUT. Me myself had to leave the club as I DID NOT FEEL SAFE AT ALL AND WAS SCARED FOR MY WELL-BEING. When I left the club I even had a word with HEAD SECURITY (who keep in mind I’ve known this man for a long time) HEAD SECURITY TOLD ME THEY CANT KICK HIM OUT BECAUSE HIS FRIENDS OF DJ FRIDAY (who is the promoter). So clearly this club have nooooooo RESPECT OF PROTECTING THE PEOPLE WHO PAYING EVERYONES WAGES. If it’s not for the people who attends LUX there would be NO CLUB!!! So save your penny and go to a actual club where your well-being is taking seriously!!! Especially WOMAN.

The event was fun but there was no diabetic friendly drinks such as coke Zero or Pepsi Max. Considering 1 in 20 Australians are diabetic this isn’t acceptable.

Was $44 Dollar entry, would of looked past if the staff weren’t so bloody rude, our friend got sick and they wouldn’t even let us out, one staff member in an elite eleven hoodie was lovely but that was the only redeeming quality. DONT GO HERE

They added on the added on terms to the deal (which I checked that it wasn’t there when purchased on Eventbrite) that I couldn’t leave and come back in, which is a standard to all the clubs I’ve been too. All I tried to do was the responsible thing by getting some air so my brain could calm down and they kicked me out when i asked if there was any way I could go for a walk without paying an extra 60$.
