Join us on Friday 16 October from 4pm to 6pm for an afternoon tasting with Aaron Fenwick from Whip Wines, the cowboy of the wine world.

Whip Wines was born somewhere between a rodeo, a dive bar and a long table dinner. It is approachable Australian wine for people who drink what they like.

There are no rules, no pretence and no polished cellar door nonsense. Just bottles with personality, made for backyards, record players, warm nights and those inevitable one more glass decisions.

Whip Wines is the rebranding of Aaron Fenwick’s Château Comme Ci, Comme Ça label. He is leaning into the Americana aesthetic, but the wines themselves are simply delicious, unfussed expressions of their grape and their place. Sourcing from small plots in the Adelaide Hills and Barossa Valley, Vine Vale.

Come along, taste the range and meet the man behind the bottles. Expect good wine, good vibes and a little bit of cowboy spirit. Giddy Up!

BOGGLE

On Wednesdays in October, join BOGGLE!

Boggle is what Boggle does: Baritone saxophone, synth, guitar, drums, weirdness, wildness, wilderness, light and heavy, dark and steady, controlled chaos for the senses. With their debut LP out as of November ’25, Boggle has been taking stages by storm, and contorting chaos into the most danceable, moshable tunes you’ve heard yet. Twisting from stompy party synth hooks to dramatic noise rock belters, sometimes within the same song, their sound is a unique one. With Rosie playing synth and guitar at the same time, and pounding drums with beautiful flourish from Toby - underpinning Anna’s dramatic, energetic baritone saxophone playing, their stage show is not to be missed. It will subvert and exceed all expectations, and take you by surprise. Their on-stage presence is a joyous one, a release of energy that could only be directed by 3 friends doing the thing they love most together. Nothing gets Boggle going more than making a whole room of people dance.

Join us on Friday 23 October from 4pm to 6pm for an afternoon tasting with Passage Wines, the Gippsland project of winemaker Kaden Boekhoorn.

Passage Wines is a small, site focused project rooted in the cool volcanic hills of Baw Baw Shire, West Gippsland. Kaden farms one hectare of dry grown vines on red volcanic soils while working with carefully selected vineyard parcels across Gippsland.

His approach starts in the vineyard, with a strong focus on soil health, vine balance and farming with patience. In the cellar, wild fermentation, gentle handling and long élevage allow the wines to develop naturally and express their sites and seasons.

Kaden came to wine after nearly a decade working in specialty coffee across Australia, the US and Japan. His fascination with origins, farming and the way place and process shape flavour eventually led him to Gippsland, where he spent more than five years learning to farm and working alongside some of the region’s most respected producers.

Passage launched with the 2024 vintage, beginning with two wines from dry grown Baw Baw Shire vineyards: a Pinot Gris and a Syrah. The Pinot Gris brings together fruit from Willow Grove and Bull Swamp, while the Syrah comes from old, own rooted vines planted in 1981 at Bull Swamp.

These are wines built around aromatics, texture and structure, rather than overt fruit or heavy winemaking. They are made with a light hand and plenty of patience, designed to evolve in the glass and reward a little time.

We also have a DJ set by Karl Halliday to get you into the Friday mood!

Come along and discover one of Gippsland’s exciting new wine projects, meet Kaden and taste wines that capture a region that still feels wonderfully untapped.

Welcome one and all to GSPTV.

’Twas the week before Halloween, and the spirit of television is loose once again at The Evelyn Hotel!

Join Igor and the Golden Scissor Puppets for a night of live music with special guests BABY OUZO & MYSTERY DAUGHTER, puppetry, loud and peculiar entertainment and things that probably should not be allowed to happen on stage or on television.

We’re heading to the graveyard, down into the tombs, through the crypts and directly into the coffins to explore the true spirit of Halloween.

Expect rare and unusual happenings, bizarre things, things that’ll make you scratch your head, scratch your butt and sniff your finger, and things that’ll make you spin in your grave before you’ve even died.

Featuring two incredible live bands, one very special wildcard act, Igor, Master, and a whole bunch of puppets and heaps of skits and segments from the puppets and the freaks.

After years of performing in theatres, bars, raves, clubs, house parties, festivals and, most recently, funerals, GSP are bringing our chaotic DIY theatre directly to you, dear audience, as we hold a vigil for a time gone by. A time when the TV ruled the home.

GSPTV is for anyone who’s ever been bored at a gig, overwhelmed by the seriousness of a "scene", or disturbed by the door price when there’s only boy bands on stage.

It’s an attempt to resurrect the lost art of appointment television. The weird shows you watched as a kid. The strange characters. The unsettling puppets. Remember when cartoons used to have a scary episode?

This is for you, who has no need for the cool or the trendy. This is for you, who has ever felt on the outside. You’re not a satellite drifting through here. You can be part of our really cracked solar system.

So come on down to the Evelyn.

Put your phone away.

Watch the television.

Meet some freaks.

GSPTV: ’Twas the Week Before Halloween.

We can't put the same show on twice cos it doesn't really work like that, so come on down or forever hold ur peas.

Golden Scissor Puppets Presents GSPTV!

Friday is looking pretty tasty.

We’re pouring free Pool Wines on Friday, October 30th from 4–6pm, and you’re invited.

Born from four childhood mates—Tim, Ed, Al and Darcy—Pool started with a shared love of wine, food and making things together. What began as a side project has grown into one of Victoria’s most exciting young wine labels, creating lo-fi, sulphur-free wines from their Kyneton winery on Dja Dja Wurrung Country.

The Pool crew keep things simple: great fruit, minimal intervention, and letting the vineyard do the talking. Sourcing from Macedon, Heathcote and Central Victoria, they focus on freshness, balance and wines with a bit of personality. No additions, no fining, no filtering—just bright, energetic bottles that are made to be opened and shared.

Expect wines with plenty of character, a few surprises, and the kind of bottles that disappear a little too easily.

We also have a DJ Set by an Ev favourite, Proc, who will be making it a Pool Party. Pool Party by Proc LFG

Come hang out, meet the people behind the label, discover some seriously good local wine, and kick off your weekend the Pool way.

Youth Group are celebrating 20 years of #1 single 'Forever Young' and 21 years since the release of their album Skeleton Jar. Toby Martin reflects on the time; "Skeleton Jar changed our lives very quickly. We were suddenly touring the US and UK, playing with Death Cab, and at Reading and Leeds and Coachella. It was an amazing adventure. And then the OC commissioned us to do a cover of Forever Young. We were reluctant at first, but then thought we could put our own spin on it. A bit of our melancholy sparkle. We never predicted it would even be a single, let alone do as well as it did. It became a song that really resonanted with people - played at graduations, and often at funerals too. Sometimes it felt like it wasn't our song anymore, but had become something for others. We are not going to play Forever Young twelve times on this tour, but will probably play it once. Plus we will play Skeleton Jar tracks, and some other favourites."
