About The Ballroom Pool and Snooker Lounge

About Us

For close to 100 years “The Ballroom” has been Wellington’s Premier Pool and Snooker lounge, offering a relaxed social environment in the heart of Courtenay Place’s entertainment area.

We aim to provide a memorable experience for groups of all sizes with a flexible range of services to cater for entry-level players, pool sharks, or those simply preferring to relax in our lounge areas.

Unique heritage with long history

The facility was opened in 1921 by Percy Tremaine who was expanding his network of pool & snooker rooms from his first venues in Willis Street and Island Bay.

There’s been a lot of keen activity since then – as recorded in the Evening Post in 1940 with snooker and billiards championship draws and dramatic battle accounts of NZ champions.

It’s changed hands and names a few times, but still continues the classic tradition.

Fully refurbished

“The Ballroom” has just had a makeover with newly covered tables, cues, and room décor – so come in and make the most of it.

It was a lovely experience. It was less crowded during the afternoon and I enjoyed the pool with my partner Matt and beat him once at a challenge game at a $2 Pool table. Will surely go back again soon. Less availability of snacks but still had loads of fun. Cue sticks are in good condition too.

This is a stunning place. I have not played pool in years and this venue has brought back great youth memories. The staff are friendly and helpful. I had a great time here.
