Moon Dog Wild West's Rootin' Tootin' First Birthday
This day-long shindig is packed with free drinks, live music and food specials.
Overview
It's a whole year since Moon Dog opened Wild West in Footscray – and, to celebrate, the venue's throwing a massive shindig: its Rootin' Tootin' First Birthday Party, to be precise. Get down there on Saturday, April 26, from 11.30am, for free drinks, live music and scrumptious food specials.
To claim your cowboy shot gratis, you'll need to make your way to the bar on the hour and say "yee-haw". A total of 365 shots will be given away – one for each day that Moon Dog Wild West has been open.
Hang around till 3pm for DJs who'll take over the rooftop, before vacating the stage for Elly McK & The Unbelievers. They'll be banging out a bunch of country-influenced covers and originals until 9.30pm, before the DJs return until 1am.
Meanwhile, $1 chicken ribs and $30 buckets of beer or fizzes will be making the rounds. You're strongly encouraged to wear your cowboy or cowgirl hat with accompanying boots – and, of course, bring your finest line dancing moves. Entry is free but bookings are recommended over here.
