Ellington Jazz Club, Jazz club in Northbridge, Perth, Australia
Ellington Jazz Club sits inside a converted dye works building and hosts performances every night in an intimate, New York-style setting. The space blends the building's heritage character with modern club design for live shows.
It opened in 2009 and occupies a heritage-listed building originally constructed in 1896 as a Chinese laundry and dye works. The transformation of this historic industrial structure enabled its use as a modern performance venue.
The venue draws local jazz musicians, international performers, and students from nearby music programs, feeding Perth's active music scene. This mix of talent creates different sounds and energy each evening.
The club offers membership programs with preferred seating and discounts, along with event spaces featuring full catering services. Visitors should check ahead for seat availability since the intimate setting draws regular crowds.
In 2014, Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts performed an unscheduled show after the band's Perth concert was cancelled. This unexpected appearance remains a landmark moment in the venue's music history.
