DOLLY at Le Méridien Melbourne Returns with Live Jazz & a Grand Dinner Show Finale
There are few places in Melbourne where time seems to slow, the lights dim just enough, and the soundtrack of the evening is set to the smooth, unmistakable rhythm of live jazz. This April, DOLLY at Le Méridien Melbourne invites you to do exactly that, step beneath the city and into a world of Parisian indulgence.
In celebration of International Jazz Appreciation Month, DOLLY is bringing back its coveted live jazz dinner series after a complete sell-out last year, with an elevated program that promises atmosphere, flavour, and unforgettable nights.

A Night in Paris… Without Leaving Melbourne
Hidden beneath the bustle of Bourke Street, DOLLY’s subterranean setting channels a 1930s European bistro, moody, romantic, and effortlessly chic. Every Saturday evening throughout April, the space comes alive with performances from Melbourne’s acclaimed live jazz act, The Night Creatures, setting the tone for a night that feels worlds away.
It’s not just the music that draws a crowd. At the helm of the kitchen is Michelin-trained Executive Chef Hervé Borghini, whose menu delivers elevated French classics with unmistakable flair. Think golden Steak Frites, rich Confit Duck, and the show-stopping Flaming Bombe Alaska, a dessert as theatrical as the night itself.
Add champagne, caviar service, and a curated wine list, and you have all the makings of a truly indulgent evening.

The Grand Finale: A One-Night-Only Spectacle
The series reaches its crescendo on Saturday, 25 April, with the highly anticipated Grand Jazz Dinner Show, a revival of the classic dinner-and-a-show experience.
Expect a full five-piece band, immersive live performance, and a generous four-course menu, all designed to transport guests into a world of old-school glamour and modern indulgence.
At $82 per person, the experience offers exceptional value for a Melbourne night out, blending premium dining, live entertainment, and an electric atmosphere in one seamless booking.
Why Everyone’s Talking About DOLLY
Since its debut, DOLLY has quietly become one of Melbourne CBD’s most in-demand after-dark destinations, where dinner, music, and mood come together in perfect harmony. What started as a limited jazz series has evolved into a standing ritual for those in the know.
And with bookings now open for April, one thing is certain—these nights won’t stay secret for long.
