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 is a short page because the true count is short: three places in and around Nunawading list live music or music shows. One is in Nunawading, a theatre, and two are in Mitcham, a hotel and a restaurant and bar.

Each place was checked against two independent sources, its own site plus OpenStreetMap or the Australian Good Food Guide. None of the three published a stage capacity that we could find, and Mitcham Hotel’s only live music reference is a listing tag with no gig dates, so we have not invented a program for it.

The Round — 379-399 Whitehorse Road, Nunawading VIC 3131

The Round is the theatre at 379-399 Whitehorse Road, and its what’s-on page is the program on record. It lists, in its own words, ‘Experience the magic of Barbra Streisand with Rachael Grace. Wed 14 Oct’ and ’the Music Legends team are back with The Paul McCartney Story!’. We recorded no ticket prices, so check the page for current dates and costs.

Door: The Round’s box office hours are listed as 10am–4pm Monday to Friday, closed on public holidays, which are counter and phone hours rather than show times.

Mitcham Hotel — 556 Whitehorse Road, Mitcham VIC 3132

Mitcham Hotel is at 556 Whitehorse Road, Mitcham, which is how OpenStreetMap and AGFG print it, while its own site prints 556 Maroondah Hwy. AGFG lists ‘Live Music’ as a feature, but we found no gig dates, so no lineup is printed here. Its site lists general opening hours of ‘Everyday: 10:00am - 4:00am’. The site describes a contemporary sports bar and a family bistro; we could not find a band room described on it.

Catch: AGFG’s Live Music tag is the only music reference we found for Mitcham Hotel, so ring the venue for dates before you go.

Mitcham Social — 1 Thornton Crescent, Mitcham VIC 3132

Mitcham Social is at 1 Thornton Crescent, Mitcham, and it is the one place here with a printed music program. Its site lists ’every Sunday LIVE MUSIC Sundays 1pm – 5pm’, and its dated schedule names Adam Mendum on Sunday 11 October. The schedule is dated, so check it for the Sunday you want. Its happy-hour page prints $10 pints for its Tuesday to Friday 3pm-7pm window, and the site lists Sunday 12-10pm with the kitchen til 9pm.

On the menu (copied from mitchamsocial.com.au and mitchamsocial.com.au/25-lunch-menu on 4 October 2026):

  • pints: $10
  • wines: $8
  • cocktails: $12
  • $25 Lunch Menu: $25

Gig nights: Mitcham Social lists live music every Sunday from 1pm to 5pm, with the artist for each date on its site’s schedule.
