Workers students and shoppers returning to the city can enjoy free live music and
entertainment in Central Geelong’s newest park every Friday night in March thanks to the
City of Greater Geelong.

Come into the city and kick back on casual furniture while listening to free live music playing
games with family and friends and enjoying hospitality offerings from local bars and
eateries.

Hula hoopers circus performers fairies and musicians will perform each Friday at the new
park at block one of the Green Spine on Malop Street (between Gheringhap and Moorabool
Streets) which opened in December 2021.

Premier Geelong Venue Frankie Bar & Eatery on Malop Street is offering a deal to coincide
with the free live music and entertainment.

The new Green Spine block one park provides a welcoming entry to Malop Street from
Johnstone Park and the Geelong Train Station Precinct. It includes an ‘all-abilities’
landscaped triangular park new plants and trees wide bluestone paving seating and
alfresco areas.

Deputy Mayor Trent Sullivan

The live performances are designed to help people rediscover what they love about heading into Central Geelong while supporting local shops restaurants cafes and bars.

People have missed seeing their workmates over coffee having a chat and heading out for drinks or shopping on a Friday night.

It’s time to say goodbye to your zoom screen and tracksuit pants. Come into Geelong and
enjoy the fabulous food wine and entertainment on offer.

Watch the sun set at a beachfront bar enjoy the fabulous food on Little Malop Street and feel the buzz of live music in downtown Geelong.

Arts Live Entertainment and Hospitality Chair Councillor Eddy Kontelj

The program is creating work for local performers while encouraging people to come back to Central Geelong.

Local musicians and performers have suffered over the last two years and punters have really missed the buzz and connection you only get from seeing live music.

Geelong is open for business so bring your family friends into the city to enjoy the free entertainment on offer every Friday night in March.
