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.
Which Richmond pubs run live music, and what do they publish about it? This page covers six pubs, four in Richmond and two in Cremorne, each tagged for live music by the Australian Good Food Guide or describing it on its own site.
Each pub was checked against OpenStreetMap, its own website and AGFG. We print hours and gig nights only where a named source gives them, and we do not print a lineup. We could not find a published capacity for any of the six, so none is given.
The criteria are plain: a live music listing at a named source, listed hours, and any printed specials.

Spread Eagle Hotel, at 372 Bridge Road, says on its own site that it offers LIVE MUSIC Friday & Saturday nights, and warns that reserving the bar may not suit a group on those nights.
