Located on Nepean Highway, Cyan is a two-level venue with three bars, a large dance floor, food and drinks, live entertainment and private function spaces.
Our program changes throughout the week and includes live bands, DJs, Open Mic, Salsa and Latin events, Blues, Music Bingo, comedy, themed nights, special events and more.
Cyan also offers private functions and celebrations, with the Upstairs Lounge available for birthdays, celebrations, workplace events and other gatherings.
Cyan has long been part of the Mentone social scene, and in 2025 Simone Sandwith took over ownership of the venue after being a local customer herself.
Since taking over, Simone has focused on building Cyan into a venue that brings together live entertainment, local performers, food, drinks, dancing, functions and the local community.
Cyan is independently owned and operated, with a strong focus on creating a venue where people can come in regularly and find something different happening throughout the week.
