The Melbourne Cricket Club is excited to unveil The Pavilion, a dynamic new dining space reserved exclusively for MCC members and their guests in the Members’ Reserve.
Situated on Level 1 near Gate 2, The Pavilion replaces the former Tower 6 dining area and will officially open on Thursday, December 18, coinciding with the Melbourne Stars’ BBL|15 season opener against the Hobart Hurricanes.
The Pavilion offers a thoughtfully crafted menu that highlights fresh, seasonal Australian produce, blending classic and contemporary dishes—from charcuterie boards and swordfish to the signature dessert, the ‘PAV’s Pav.’
Complementing the main menu is a tempting snack bar lineup featuring sliders, loaded fries, and fried chicken, available after the main service.

The venue showcases a modern, relaxed layout, making it an ideal spot for enjoying events with friends and family. Bookings are not required; seating operates on a first-come, first-served basis.
Join us at The Pavilion this summer to discover a new favorite in the Members’ Reserve.
But here’s where it gets interesting: this space signals a shift in MCC’s catering approach, prioritizing a more casual, social dining experience without compromising quality. And this is the part most people miss—how a refreshed environment can elevate the atmosphere on event days while still honoring traditional MCC hospitality.
