Correction (5 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 5 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
One venue in Mernda had live music on the public record, and this page covers it: the Bridge Inn Hotel on Plenty Road. A short page should say so. We have not recorded a capacity, a door charge or set times for it, so none is printed here.
What we can give you is the venue’s own words about its entertainment, its listed hours and the one price we could read. Everything below is attributed to the source it came from.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Order this | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Friday-night local entertainment, per the venue’s site | Bridge Inn Hotel | Kids meals including a drink and dessert | $10 |
Bridge Inn Hotel — 1425 Plenty Road, Mernda VIC 3754
The Bridge Inn Hotel’s site says: ‘Every Friday night we have the best in local entertainment from artists such as Gary Eastwood, Joel Quinn, and many more.’ Those names are the site’s examples; we cannot confirm who plays on a given Friday. AGFG also lists Live Music as a feature of the venue.
The site gives its general opening hours as ‘Sun - Wed: 10:00am - 1:00am Thu - Sat: 10:00am - 3:00am’, so Friday falls in the Thu - Sat window. Other pages on the site print different times for parts of the venue, so call ahead. The site also mentions a Sport’s Bar and a lineup of 14 products on tap. We have not recorded which room hosts the music.
The one price we could read is not a music price: the bar page says kids’ meals including a drink and dessert are available for $10, with no days or times printed. The main menu is a scanned-image PDF with no readable text.
On the menu (copied from thebridgeinnhotel.com.au/bar on 5 October 2026):
- Kids meals including a drink and dessert: $10
Gig nights: Friday, per the venue’s own site; we have no other gig night on record.
