Melbourne’s inner east suburbs nightlife centre around the suburb of Richmond and the world famous Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). There are numerous hotels, pubs and bars throughout the area with most either a short walk from the MCG or scattered along Richmonds busy Bridge street. Many of the pubs in this area have been around for a long time and have retained their heritage appeal while evolving with the times.
Live music is certainly alive and well in Melbourne’s inner east with numerous venues like the Corner Hotel and the Great Britain Hotel, hosting regular entertainment.
On match days the pubs around the MCG come alive with hordes of patrons. Whether it be Australian Rules Football or Cricket they come in, either prior to or after the event or simply to watch from the comfort of the local pub.
