Ready for something different? The Martini Henrys are hitting the stage this Saturday from 9pm till late, bringing a live show that’s anything but predictable.
Forget the same old covers — this duo takes you on a nostalgic ride through iconic hits and unexpected twists, jumping from Elton John to Faith No More, swinging through Eminem, then straight into alternative classics like You Am I and Soundgarden.
With massive sound, no backing tracks (yes, really), tight harmonies and a seriously impressive setup, The Martini Henrys deliver a live experience that fills the room and keeps the energy high all night long.
📍 Live from 8:30pm
🎶 Big sound • iconic songs • good times
Grab your mates and settle in for a Saturday night done right. 🍻✨
