ABOUT THE PARLOUR

Since fire gutted Katoomba’s historic Savoy Theatre in 1982, the Art-Deco foyer had been left unused. After nearly 40 years we’ve revived the foyer to create a charming social lounge and event space, now home to the GIN PARLOUR.

The GIN PARLOUR presents live music every week and Katoomba Comedy Club on the first friday of each month. You can enjoy the full Avalon menu and drinks list.

The GIN PARLOUR is also available to book for your own private event.
