Establish why you need a shop space for rent in Sydney

Before you look for a shop space for rent in Sydney, your best bet will be to make sure you know why exactly you need it. This is a necessity because you’ll want to include Peerspace venues that suit your intended purpose.
For instance, if you’re looking for an adorable storefront where you can throw a baby shower, you’ll want to make sure to search for shop spaces that allow large gatherings and aren’t only designated for, say, photography or other creative projects.
In addition, you’ll also want to look for spaces that have the particular amenities you need, are the right size/have adequate capacity for the number of people who will be utilizing the space, and other specific criteria that Peerspace can help you narrow your search down based on (more on this in the next section).

Some examples of shop spaces for rent in Sydney

Curious to see a few examples of what Peerspace has to offer in terms of shop spaces in Sydney? Before you begin your search in earnest, here are three of our fave listings in the area.
Versatile Pop-up Shop in the Heart of Oxford Street
This flexible shop space can be used “as a pop-up shop, brand activation space, retail store, art gallery or event space”. It is conveniently located “in the heart of Sydney’s Oxford Street Darlinghurst opposite the national art school.” You’ll have access not only to the storefront space itself, but also the back of house room and private rear courtroom.
One reviewer who booked the space for a musical performance gave their experience here five stars and had nothing but positive things to say about the space itself as well as the helpful host. “This space was absolutely perfect! We were able to have a pop-up space for a music artist – it was able to act as a launch with drinks, food and a place for people to mingle as well as get an incredible performance from an artist. The venue manager was easy to work with and very reliable, I highly recommend this space for use on Oxford Street!”
Large Showroom with High Ceilings & Exposed Brick Walls
Looking for space, space, and more space? Then this showroom has it. Not only square footage (it’s a total of 220 square meters and has a capacity for up to 250 guests at a time), but also 4.5-meter ceilings with skylights that make them feel even higher.
Contributing to the open and airy vibe of this showroom is its striking modern design. It boasts exposed brick walls and concrete flooring that give it an industrial yet refined feel.
In addition to these features, the hosts note that the space has “architecturally designed lighting to optimise the balance of natural and installed lights”. There’s also “large windows at front and rear of the floor, skylights and premium track lighting throughout the premises”. A$200 per hour (with a two-hour minimum) for a space of this size and quality is a steal!
Fully Equipped Stunning New Beauty Studio
Here’s a more unusual option that we’d like to highlight for those in need of a space suited to beauty-related events. It’s an absolutely lovely studio that the hosts bill as “perfect for training days, beauty events, pamper [parties],” and more.
Amenities that come with your rental include 16 chairs and tables, 8 beds, hot towels, cabinet lockers, and linens, among others. So whether you’re throwing together an intimate girls’ night or something more public-facing like a professional skincare event, you’ll have just about everything you need to make your plans a reality.
Just keep in mind that this is a smaller studio, with 75 square meters of space and capacity for up to 15 people at a time. Sounds like it might be a good fit? Then be sure to reach out to the host with any questions you might have!
