Mid-Week Fun In Sydney

Mid-Week Fun In Sydney Even after a heavy weekend out on the frazzle and the dazzle in Sydney; Monday comes and work becomes a reality. By Monday evening, you are sat with nothing to do wishing it was Friday again, so here are some mid-week perks to make the week seem that little bit more bearable. Whether it’s a night with some karaoke with a twist, or a touch of Disco with some funky art on show – Sydney doesn’t sleep during the week to keep you guys entertained. If it’s pampering you need with your best girls (or boys), or a glass or three of the finest wines with some classics playing for your ears. Read on to check out the alternative mid week events the city of Sydney has to offer.

Manicures and Martinis – Marlborough Hotel

All girls deserve a self-indulgent afternoon every once and a while. Why not approach the Marlborough Hotel with the number of girls gathering together and a day to suit all, to see what they have to offer. Sip Martinis and get your nails sparkling whilst catching up and giggling and cracking jokes as the time flies by. Exclusively available at three of Sydney’s leading bars – The Belvedere in the heart of Sydney CBD, COHIBAR overlooking the breathtaking Darling Harbour and the Marlborough Hotel in quirky Newtown – each one offers a different atmosphere to suit your mood. Perfect for hen parties or just a bit of indulgence.

The Psychic – Jacksons On George
Head to Jacksons On George, every Wednesday night from 7pm and have your future told for free by the resident psychic whilst you sip on your favourite tipple! They even have their $10 schnitzel offer on too! What could be more fun than being told what your future holds as you sit and compare notes with your mates over a glass of wine or a schooner of beer. Going to events like this can sometimes cost an arm and a leg but Jacksons is really pushing the boat out this month because The Psychic is in town.
176 George Street, Sydney 2000

Tranny Thursdays – Scruffy Murphy’s
If you’re looking for a mid week night out which is completely different, and off-the-wall, Thursdays offer Tranny Karaoke which is a must do whether you live in Sydney or are just staying for a few days. Full of craic, this mid week offer is one not to be missed. Laughing has never been so contagious. Whether you want to party all night, watch live sports in Sydney or if you’re out for some mid week entertainment, Scruffy Murphy’s is a casual hang out and well worth a visit any night of the week. People literally move into this joint and there’s a great community atmosphere.

43-49 Goulburn St, Sydney 2000
(02) 9211-2002

The Wall – World Bar
Sydney’s unique club night for a mad one after a mid week crisis on a Wednesday at work or a sweet day at the beach: art exhibitions upstairs and the only free weekly Dubstep party downstairs. Gulp your drink and have a gander in the Tea Room before bopping downstairs for Disco, Hip-Hop and Dubstep. Winner – who would have thought that music and art were going to collaborate so well?
24 Bayswater Road, Sydney, 2011
(02) 9357-7700

Music & Wine – The Gazebo
A BBM favourite for the mid week promos. If you love wine and you love music (let’s face it, who doesn’t?) Then the gazebo pulls in the crowds one Wednesday a month from 7pm with a fine selection of tipples and tunes. Wednesday August 22nd sees 90’s pop hit the ears of winos from across Sydney and then again in September (make sure you call and book/find out more info). Grab a group of mates and expect some serious shapes to be thrown from the table.
