How big is Rack-em-up?
Rack-em-up is much bigger than most people think, especially if you have just seen the front of the venue from outside & have not yet come inside. When inside you will notice it is a long rectangle shape. The area of the public space inside Rack-em-up is roughly 600 square meters. The licenced capacity of Rack-em-up is 797 patrons. By way of comparison - the two nearest pool halls have licenced capacities of 400 patrons (Bundoora) & 190 patrons (Dandenong), or perhaps you know the three late night venues in Ringwood which have licenced capacities for 620, 450 & 100 patrons. With a licenced capacity of 797 patrons, Rack-em-up is so much bigger than most people think.
How rough is Rack-em-up?
Not at all. Some people assume that because Rack-em-up is a pool hall that it must be full of undesirable people & activities. The reality is quite different. Rack-em-up does not experience anywhere near the same level of issues found in many other venues. This is partly because we do not over serve & mostly because the majority of our customers are well behaved. The atmosphere at Rack-em-up is a happy relaxed vibe. You can relax and feel safe when you are at Rack-em-up.
