The John Curtin Hotel

About Me


The Curtin Bandroom is the latest addition to Melbourne’s live music scene, a newly refurbished live music venue that enables patrons unrestricted views of the large stage lit up by 12 brand new DMX controlled LED PAR cans and powered by a state of art HK Long Throw PA System.
Located at the city end of Lygon St Carlton, The Curtin is a short walk from Swanston and Russels Sts and is easily accessible by public transport. Secure overnight gear lockup and private dressing rooms are also available.
The Curtin's Kitchen is fantastic, with $8 bar meals, chef specials and P.O.W's (Pie, Parma and Pasta of the week) there's an option for all and starts the day/night out perfectly. It's an old school bistro with the serverary fronting the kitchen.
Overall The Curtin is a great place to have a drink, feel and or bring the rock! but above all have a top time.
