MORGUE NIGHTS – FRIDAY MAY 8

Bit of Benambra history…
Our dining room apparently used to be a **morgue**

So instead of ignoring that… we’re leaning into it 😈

We’ve always wanted to bring something different to nightlife in the High Country —
so we’re turning the dining room into a nightclub.

Introducing **MORGUE NIGHTS** ⚰️🔥

🎧 DJ Crypt-33 spinning vinyl and dropping the beats
💰 Joker Poker first – win some cash before things get loose
🕘 9 till late
🚪 FREE ENTRY

Come raise the dead on the dancefloor 💀🕺

🎶 DJ George on the decks from 3PM 🎶

Spinning vinyls the way they should be — none of that digital nonsense.

Kick back, enjoy the beer garden and soak up the sun ☀️ while George drops the bangers all arvo.

Cold drinks, good tunes, and that High Country air — doesn’t get much better 🍻

🃏 𝗝𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗿 – $𝟮𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗝𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗽𝗼𝘁 🃏

This Friday at the Benambra Pub…

Over half the cards are already flipped 👀
Which means your odds of pulling the Joker are looking pretty bloody good.

💰 $2000 up for grabs
⛽ That’s over 500L of diesel for your vehicle 🤣

Grab a ticket and have a crack!

And the best part… every ticket helps keep this little town ticking.
Joker Poker nights support local groups, projects, and the community that makes Benambra what it is.

So even if you don’t jag the Joker — you’re still backing the pub, the people, and the place we all love ❤️

See you Friday 🍻
