About Coogee Pavilion

Coogee Pavilion is Merivale's large beachside venue in the old Palace Hotel building on Dolphin Street, Coogee. The ground floor works as a casual all-day hall with a pub bar, restaurant, oyster bar and wood-fired pizza.

The rooftop on level three has 270-degree ocean views, three bars and retractable walls. On Friday nights it runs free-entry DJ sessions playing house, pop and party anthems, with the dance floor usually starting around 10pm.
