About Us
The first POOF DOOF was on November 5th 2011 on the top level of The Bottom End in Melbourne's CBD.
In November 2019, we opened POOF DOOF Sydney at ivy in Sydney's CBD. Justin Hemmes and the team at Merivale approached POOF DOOF asking us to create a new Saturday night party experience in the biggest nightlife precint in the entire country. This was an unprecendeted move, and POOF DOOF Sydney enjoyed weekly crowds of over 2,000 people for many years.
