Amy and The Rectifiers are pumped to hit the stage at The Retreat, one of Melbourne’s most iconic live music venues! Get set for a high-energy night packed with chart-topping hits from the '60s through to the 2000s—blending the best of RnB, Rock, and Pop into one unforgettable show. Come for the music, stay for the vibes—let’s make it a night to remember!
Melbourne-based indie rockers the Droptails are returning for select live performances in early 2026 to showcase their new album ‘Through Road’.
lowing through spheres of folk, psychedelia, jazz and indie, höwndog, axis mundi and lina at the retreat on the evening of the 7th of march will be the most ideal way to unwind and let your conscious free after a long week.
Sing It Sister! is a high-energy, all-genders singalong for sisterhood! It’s a blow-the-roof-off celebration on International Women’s Day.
RESTLESS RECORDS CREW play INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY [IWD] @ The Retreat Hotel Brunswick w/ Mizhap B2B Lil Lil (Debut) & Black Barbie (Debut)!
We are an emerging band that plays music which shifts from bossa-nova infused grooves to up-tempo jazz, with hints of soul! We want our music to be both exciting and fun, both old and new - it’s all about having a good time!
Freya Josephine Hollick writes of breathtaking bucolic scenes, and articulates those things about love and loss most of us can scarcely put into words.
March 13 is looking like a pretty good night to be at the Retreat to finish off your work week with Tainted Facade. Supported by Sledgehammer Honey and The Styes.
An free afternoon of live music at the Retreat with Anatreptix playing Rebetika.
