Celebrate New Year's Eve 2016 in Bayside

Local Community



New Year’s Eve is a time to reflect on your achievements and reward yourself for all your hard work before delving into 2016. For all our friends in the Bayside area,  
C&G have compiled this list of things to see and do on the last day of the year.

Half Moon Bay Beach

Beach Road, Melbourne

Head down to Beach Road to enjoy the last day of the year at Half Moon Bay. With the iconic shipwreck of the HMVS Cerberus in the distance and the Cerberus Beach House on hand to serve you cold drinks and top notch fish and chips, this is a great option for families wishing to avoid the NYE mania. 

The Dava Hotel

614 Esplanade, Mount Martha

This spacious, classic hotel along the Mt Martha Esplanade has a wide open deck that opens at 11.30am. Bring the kids for a traditional pub lunch, or stay back in the evening for a New Year’s Eve party with live music and $7 champers.  

St Hotel

54 Fitzroy St, St Kilda VIC 3182

With four bars, a nightclub and a restaurant under one roof, the St Hotel promises to keep you entertained all night. Offering bespoke cocktails, boutique whiskeys and French champagne, this St Kilda venue should make a great hub for those wanting a hassle-free evening. 

The Elwood Lounge

49/51 Glen Huntly Rd, Elwood 

Local vibes for the everyman! This Elwood venue will be offering an affordable night out with a great range of $4 drinks specials from 6-11pm. Also on offer is the outdoor courtyard, live music and ample seating for a comfy evening. 

Captain Baxter / St Kilda Sea Baths

10/18 Jacka Blvd, St Kilda

St Kilda Sea Baths have been a beachside playground for over 160 years, and are offering ‘a multi-scale sunset party across Encore/ Captain Baxter and Sea Baths Rooftops’. With a range of DJs and ‘other surprises’, tickets are limited so book now through Moshtix. 

Mr Hobson

9 Waterfront Pl, Port Melbourne 

Watch the sun set over the ocean at Mr Hobson in Port Melbourne. With a dinner, dance and DJ night planned from 5.30pm, this event will sell out, so get in quick to enjoy their range of cocktails and extensive wine list. 

The Antique Bar

218 Glen Huntly Rd, Elsternwick 

A Great Gatsby NYE! This roaring twenties themed evening promises electro swing, classic cocktails and free entry from 5pm-1am. Drink packages also available.
