The Kings Arms is one of the oldest pubs in town with one of the biggest and sunniest garden bars around.
The 'K.A' is the city's premiere rock'n' roll venue with live music 4 or 5 nights a week and in the garden bar on Sunday afternoons.
It's the most reliable venue to catch an earful of what's going down in the local live rock scene as well as hosting plenty of international acts passing through.
The K.A. also has a TAB and a public bar out the front, a top spot to watch and have a punt on the footy.
Voted best music venue by Metro magazine 2003.
