Correction (4 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 4 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
This page answers a narrow question: where in and around Bentleigh East does a published source say there is live music? The honest count is one place. Big Pig Canteen sits in Moorabbin, just outside the suburb, and it is the only venue we could confirm with a Live Music listing.
We checked it against two independent sources: the Australian Good Food Guide and the venue’s own website. We did not find a published capacity, gig calendar or door charge for anyone, so none is printed here. We would rather give you one checked listing than pad the page.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Order this | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Listed for live music, with BBQ | Big Pig Canteen | Big Pig Burger | $28 |
Big Pig Canteen — 35 Ebden Street, Moorabbin VIC 3189
AGFG tags Big Pig Canteen with Live Music, and that tag is the whole of the music evidence we hold. We could not find a published gig night, lineup or set time, so none appears here. The venue is at the Ebden Street address in Moorabbin, not Bentleigh East. Its site lists the kitchen as open Wednesday to Thursday 5pm to 8:30pm, Friday to Saturday 12pm to 9pm and Sunday 12pm to 8pm, and those are kitchen hours, not music hours. The menu prints the Big Pig Burger at $28.
On the menu (copied from bigpiglittlepig.com.au on 4 October 2026):
- Big Pig Burger: $28
- Vegie Burger: $26
- Southern Fried Chicken Wings (6): $16
- Chicken Basket: $32
Catch: AGFG lists Live Music but no gig nights we could find, so call the venue before you plan around a band.
Quick answers
Where can you find live music in Bentleigh East?
Only one place passed our checks: Big Pig Canteen, which AGFG tags with Live Music. It is in Moorabbin, just outside Bentleigh East, so treat it as nearby rather than in the suburb.
Which nights does Big Pig Canteen have live music?
We could not find a published gig night or lineup for Big Pig Canteen. AGFG tags it Live Music and its own site lists kitchen hours, but neither names music nights, so check with the venue directly.
Does Big Pig Canteen serve food during live music?
Its site lists a menu, with the Big Pig Burger at $28 and the Vegie Burger at $26, and the kitchen hours it publishes run Wednesday to Sunday. We cannot say how those hours line up with any music, because no source ties them together.
Is there a door charge or capacity listed for live music nearby?
We could not find a published door charge or capacity for Big Pig Canteen, so we state none. Ask the venue before you go.
