Open Mic Nights in Mentone
Every Thursday, Cyan Bar & Lounge comes alive with Melbourne’s most welcoming Open Mic night. Musicians, singers, bands and comedians take the stage — and everyone’s invited to watch, cheer and be part of it.
FREE to perform. FREE to watch.
Who’s it for?
Complete beginners, music students, solo artists, duos, bands, drummers, instrumentalists, comedians and anyone who just loves live entertainment. All ages welcome to perform.
What to expect
- A full backline (Billy’s drum kit is set up and ready — just bring your instrument and your voice)
- A supportive, low-pressure room to try new songs or new material
- A genuine local music and comedy community, not just a stage
