Experience History at The Interlude

Story of Place

You will be personally escorted by your Host to our gathering place, nestled in B-Division’s former panopticon, only one of eight in the world. Enjoy a glass of Victorian red during the winter months, or a refreshing sparkling during summertime. Paired with a selection of cheese carefully selected by our culinary team, taste some of our favourite producers from both near and far.

Meet fellow travellers, share your story and your motivation for visiting Pentridge, along with what you’re hoping to discover during your time at The Interlude in the heart of Melbourne’s North.

Be introduced to our surrounding region and uncover stories of our neighbours, including Impala & Peacock, Brunswick Aces, and Koko Black. Get a glimpse into our art community and Pentridge’s resident artists. Learn about the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people, and what made Merri Creek a place of great significance many years ago. Find out why Pentridge came to be, and hear unexpected stories of mateship, transformation, and connection – not to mention, some of our favourite escape stories, too.

When weather conditions permit, a campfire will burn under the stars. As the experience comes to an end, your Host will escort you to back to your suite, to Olivine wine bar, or North&COMMON restaurant to continue your evening festivities.
