The Handle Bar at Classic Motorcycle Mecca

The Handle Bar is an elegant and intimate space that is the ideal spot to host boutique dining and urbane, polished cocktail parties.

Brimming with natural light, inner-city views, exposed brick and gleaming wooden floors, The Handle Bar is the place to go if you are looking for easy elegance to set the tone at your next event. This is an Invercargill events destination with a difference.

Housed in a restored heritage building that has retained – and in fact, celebrated – the essence of its striking original features, hosting an event here also allows guests to get up close and personal with some of the most impressive motorbikes in the world.

Situated amongst Classic Motorcycle Mecca’s striking ‘hero display’, guests will admire the nostalgic ambience bikes such as Brough Superior, John Britten motorcycles, and sleek-and-super fast speedway bikes made famous by Kiwi legend Ivan Mauger, lend to their event.

The Handle Bar is perfect for intimate gatherings and can comfortably accommodate up to 40 guests during a seated dinner, or up to 90 people in a cocktail setting.

All events held at Classic Motorcycle Mecca are overseen by an experienced, courteous and obliging team who not only value their client relationships but also have an appreciation that every event is completely individual and unique.

Meanwhile, an exceptional food and beverage service is provided by a team dedicated to ensuring your event is one guests rave about long after the party ends.

Bluff oysters, Stewart Island salmon, locally-sourced beef and game – is your mouth watering yet?

Showcasing some of the best produce in the country, from canapes to a la carte dining, our cuisine constantly receives rave reviews. Guests can expect this to be of the highest standard. The team can work with a variety of briefs to best suit your needs.

Events at Classic Motorcycle Mecca offer guests access to the spectacular museum collection as well. After-hours access to the collections is also available upon request.
