About Mary's Poppin

If you want a night that’s built around drag and a proper late finish, Mary’s Poppin does exactly that. The queer‑owned venue on Synagogue Place opens from 9pm on Fridays and Saturdays and programmes DJs, themed club nights and nightly drag entertainment — the FAQs state there are nine shows every single night. The venue advertises four distinct zones and a rotating calendar of events that has included international drag names alongside a large local roster of performers. Mary’s also hosts private hires and special events, and the team note they sometimes stay open beyond 3am (occasionally until 5am) for long weekends and headline nights.

What to expect

An event‑led night where drag is central: expect repeated live performances across the evening, DJs and themed club programming in separate zones, and a late finish on Fridays and Saturdays. Entry requires valid photo ID; the venue enforces a dress code and a zero‑tolerance policy on harassment.

it's a good club, but not really comfortable having no 'female' only toilets. unisex and men, but not female. would also appreciate if the security didn't always come in and "check", forcing you to open the toilet when using it. I understand wanting to make sure everyone's okay. but i shouldn't have to open the door when i'm trying to use the toilet. it is a bit humiliating. but the staff are nice

$25 entry fee. Are you kidding me 🤷🏼‍♂️ We would have spent easily $80-100 each in there. Clearly the door queen didn’t want any over 50’s in the venue. No where online do they advertise the entry price. So door queen decides who pays what. It’s a real shame as this is the only place for LGBT people to get together to feel safe in Adelaide. We travelled a long while to get to the city, only to be made to feel unwelcome at the ONLY gay bar in Adelaide. The “put your arms up, empty your pockets, keys vapes, phones out”, "We have to do this to make you safe” from security. We were made to feel very unsafe and very unwelcome. We are the people you should be welcoming and making feel safe. Shame on you. Your staff and business model needs changing.

Had a great time, Curtis and Janya (so so sorry if that isn't right) were amazing bartenders and were very nice and fun. The drag queens were all beautiful and amazing and put on a great performance, whilst it wasn't the cheapest place, it was still a great experience that I will definitely do again.
