Hotel Esplanade (The Espy)

st kilda →
11 The Esplanade, St Kilda VIC 3182

the espy keeps a gig or two most weeks, mixing covers and party nights with rock and roll, indie and alt, pop and singer-songwriter sets. friday, saturday and sunday are the nights it leans into, with open mic and party bills popping up again and again. there's usually a door charge or ticket, just the going rate for a room that likes to keep the calendar full.
