Diner 66 Christchurch

🎷 BIG BAND, BIG SOUND… AND A LITTLE DINER 66 ON THE SIDE! 🍔🥤

The Big Band Jazz Festival is hitting Christchurch from 22–26 October, and we reckon there’s something about big band music and a classic American diner that just belongs together!
So we’re getting in on the action. 🎶

If you’re heading along to the festival, swing by Diner 66 before or after your show, show us your festival ticket and we’ll shout you a FREE DRINK with your meal! *

Breakfast before the music? Lunch between performances? Burgers, fries and shakes afterwards? We’re open:
🕗 8am–9pm
📅 Tuesday–Sunday

No bookings required, but if you’re coming with a group, it’s always a good idea to give us a heads-up.
So dust off your dancing shoes, get ready for some seriously good music and make Diner 66 part of your Big Band weekend. 🎺🎷🥁
See you there!
Ts & Cs apply. One complimentary standard drink per festival ticket holder with the purchase of a main meal. Show your valid Big Band Jazz Festival ticket when ordering. Check instore for free drink options (limited selection).
