All good things must come to an end.

It’s been a phenomenal run but I have decided it’s time to call it a day and finish up at Glamorama in a few weeks time. I’ll get more self-indulgent with it when I’ve had time to reflect but for the moment I’ll say that I am incredibly proud of what has been achieved over the last 5.5 years and I couldn’t be happier with where I am leaving the club. I always knew Glam had the potential and to realise it was a dream come true. I will always wear my work here as a badge of honour.

You’ll still find me at the club plenty and I look forward to playing a healthy amount of shows over the next 10 months before heading off on a new adventure. Come through, let’s have a drink and reminisce. Maybe I’ll finally let you buy me one.

Applications for my role have opened up and I would encourage everyone to apply quickly. You can find the link in Glam’s bio. Please do not ask me for a coffee to talk it over or to look through your application before you submit. I got way too much to do as I compress myself into a zip file. taken in Glamorama by @_slumdog

Farewell to Sloan. He was a good boy and lived a good life. Made ours infinitely better. He was a bit dumb and blind but it led to incredible comedic timing. He always wanted to be Becs true love. Always wanted to be one of the boys. He was our handsome lil guy. He will always be missed.🕊️ by @_slumdog

A bittersweet moment as we reflect on our time with Sanjiv, as he finishes up his 5-and-a-half-year journey as our Marketing & Bookings Manager here at Glamorama.

Beginning as an eager Marketing Manager, Sanjiv entered Glamorama with fresh ideas, unwavering passion, and the ultimate ‘can do’ attitude - keen to learn anything and everything he could. From tech and design to how to run the bar - you name it, Sanjiv wanted to know it. His curiosity and dedication came from a hunger to make every aspect of the music scene his wheelhouse, and we can confidently say he achieved exactly that.

Beyond Glamorama’s walls, Sanjiv made it his business to stay switched on to the scene, becoming the go-to guy who seemed to know every event happening on any given weekend. That deep knowledge of the industry is exactly what he brought with him when he took over bookings - since then, he’s transformed Glamorama with a considered approach to every detail, always led by an instinct for what the scene needed next. Sanjiv has poured his soul into creating unforgettable nights, always with the music at the forefront.

From 30 Years of Wiggle Records, to the X-Coast DJ Competition, and the madness of the Intercell x Partiboi69 Afterparty - Sanjiv was working hard behind the scenes to make it all happen. His ability to connect with others, recognise talent, and foresee where the industry was heading - somehow doing it all in an organised chaos we will never quite understand.

You may also recognise Sanjiv from behind the decks through his alias “Slumdog,” one of Glamorama’s best resident DJs.

This isn’t goodbye - it’s see you soon. On the dance floor, behind the booth, or by the bar - we know we’ll see you, with a round of Agwa Bombs on the way and a Peroni Red in hand. And if not, we’ll hear those squeaky shoes coming from a mile away, as they make their weekly pilgrimage to Viet Rose Bakery.

We are forever thankful for Sanjiv’s passion, guidance and devotion. An irreplaceable part of Glamorama’s story and Melbourne’s nightlife.

Wishing you all the best for what’s next, Jizzy.

Love, Glam. by @_slumdog

Apparently one appearance in July wasn’t enough.

SLUMDOG came through last time and left the place looking like it had been professionally disturbed.

So this Friday, we are bringing him back.

A friend of ours, a proper presence, and clearly someone who knows how to turn a regular night into a small administrative issue.

Bottomless is back for its third Friday this month too!

$30 gets you entry plus bottomless drinks from 10pm till midnight.

Not to mention the solid local lineup as well.

Friday is looking spicy 🌶️ by @_slumdog

Two of Glamorama's own in Slumdog & SALERNO headline this Saturday night.

Slumdog - here to take you through all things house, garage to techno and even a sprinkle of DnB if you stick around long enough… A selector known for making DJing look ‘that easy’ but even more recognisable, is his unmatched energy each and every time - regardless of how many times he’s done it before. A Glam favorite for good reason - now’s the time to hear for yourself.

If you’ve been to Glam, you would’ve seen SALERNO - behind the decks or on the dancefloor, and if not there, something must be up. One of our favourite patrons, turned DJ on our roster - SALERNO spinning tunes that couldn’t be mistaken for anything but high energy - except UKG, trance and techno - with just the right amount of lyrics and bass to keep you on the dancefloor from start to finish.

Supported by Kailyn Crabbe, pretending2beholly, and a 3 hour courtyard marathon from Moylo & Olly Myers.
