Transforming a vacant commercial space into a vibrant hub for creativity
The Space
500 Hay Street in Subiaco is a 234sqm commercial space offering a flexible setting for creative, community and event-based activation. Positioned just off of Subiaco’s key retail strip, the site presents an opportunity to bring new energy and activity to the town centre.
As part of its ongoing partnership with the City of Subiaco, SPACEMRKT was engaged to facilitate the activation of the vacant tenancy, sourcing and securing Club25 by Diva Dates as its new occupant. The space has since been transformed into a vibrant, multi-purpose creative hub, accommodating content creation, photography, workshops, events and community gatherings.
The Impact
The activation of 500 Hay Street has brought new life to a previously vacant commercial tenancy, transforming it into a vibrant and accessible space for creativity, connection and community engagement.
By providing an affordable and flexible home for Club25 by Diva Dates, the project has supported the growth of a local, female-founded business while creating opportunities for other creatives, small businesses and community groups to utilise the space.
Beyond filling a vacancy, the project demonstrates how underutilised commercial spaces can become valuable community assets. Through regular events, workshops and creative programming, 500 Hay Street is contributing to increased activity in Subiaco's town centre, encouraging collaboration and providing a platform for emerging businesses and creative talent.
