Crown Metropol’s signature restaurant offering French inspired modern dishes. Signature dishes include a modern twist on nursery favourite of boiled egg and toasted soldiers, remodelled for the discerning diner as duck egg with sourdough soldiers, roasted Canadian scallops on cauliflower puree with toasted wild rice and spice and Saltbush lamb belly served with peas and mint. Leather seating, a modern and relaxed ambience, bar snacks and an outdoor terrace make Tonic Melbourne a great place to relax after a busy day. Accessible from Crown Promenade Hotel’s lobby, or from the air bridge that links the hotel to the Crown Entertainment Complex, the Tonic Bar is well placed no matter what plans you have for the night.

New Year's is fast approaching, and Crown Melbourne is here to make sure you farewell 2018 the right way.
It’s that time of year again. Nostalgia kicks in as we start looking back at the last 11 months before we go into planning mode and set a bunch of resolutions for the next year that we know we probably won’t stick too.
Crown Casino Melbourne Rooftop Bars
But in between all the reminiscing and forward thinking it’s important to have a little (or a lot) of fun too, and after a huge 12 months, you best believe we’re all saying sayonara to 2018 in style.
Don’t let the memories of past anticlimactic New Year’s celebrations stop you from giving it your all this year, and with the trio of events Crown Melbourne has lined up, there is something for everyone.
Secret Garden NYE Rooftop Party
Spend New Year’s under the Melbourne sky, with views towards the glittering lights of the city, at Crown Aviary’s Secret Garden Rooftop party. The exclusive oasis in the sky will have you feeling like the VIP we all know you are. Enjoy flowing champagne, the finest food and entertainment from DJ John Course while taking in the best views in Melbourne.
Tickets are available here.
Love NYE 2018
If dancing all night is more your style, then head to Crown’s Level 3 Nightclubs for their 2018 instalment of Love NYE. This year, Melbourne’s biggest indoor music festival will be headlined by none other than Will Sparks in an exclusive performance. Jay Sean will also be performing live alongside 40 of Australia’s hottest DJs. They’ll be playing house, RnB, party anthems, latin and more across five huge stages, with state of the art production and dancers to bring the whole thing together.
Grab your tickets here.
New Year’s Eve Gala Party
Maybe you’re keen to spend your New Year’s feeling like you’re at the top of the world. If so, head on up to Crown Melbourne’s highest and most exclusive cocktail bar, 28 Skybar Lounge for their New Year’s Eve Gala Party. Showcasing awe-inspiring panoramic views over the Melbourne cityscape, these are sights only the 28th level can provide. Indulge in Piper-Heidsieck champagne, the finest food while taking it all in.

Now we’ve got that sorted, it’s time to pick your outfit and start counting down the days.
