Friday knock-offs and weekend catch-ups just got a serious upgrade. Southbeach is bringing the soundtrack to summer with its Summer Series, serving up live music and DJs at Stanley Street Plaza every Friday and across the weekend.

‍

Forget heading straight home after work. From 2pm on Fridays, Southbeach sets the scene for an afternoon of live music, DJs and riverside drinks. Come Saturday and Sunday, the sessions kick off even earlier, with music from 12pm. Add views across the Brisbane River and Streets Beach, and you've got a pretty good excuse to make a day of it.

‍

And if you're planning to stay a while, there's the $10 Bites & Margs menu to make the afternoon even better. The menu is designed for sharing and snacking, with bites including karaage chicken, marinated mixed olives, sourdough garlic bread and chicken wings. On the drinks front, choose from a Jalapeño Spicy Marg, Passionfruit Marg or Classic Marg, or cool off with one of the new slushies, including Southbeach Blue, Mango Loco, Sour Raspberry and Piña Colada.

‍

Available daily from 3pm to 5pm, it's an easy excuse to get the group together, order a few plates and settle in for the afternoon.

Whether you're clocking off early on Friday or making a weekend of it, Southbeach's Summer Series has your riverside plans sorted. Book here.
