New Year's Eve in Melbourne is all about timing. You want a proper dinner, a good table and enough time to get to the fireworks, the party or the rooftop before midnight. Masti on Brunswick Street, Fitzroy makes that easy.
Masti on New Year's Eve 2026
We are open on Thursday 31 December 2026 from 5pm to 10pm, serving our full à la carte menu. No fixed-price NYE menu and no minimum spend — just the dishes you love, ordered the way you like.
Book an early table and you will be done in time for the fireworks, a party or a night out on Brunswick Street. Book a later one and you can toast the year with a cocktail before heading to midnight celebrations.

What to order for a New Year's Eve feast
Indian food is made for celebrating, and the best way to eat it is together. A few ways to build the table:
Start with street food. Pani puri, samosa chaat and momos get everyone sharing straight away.
Something from the tandoor. Chicken tikka, paneer tikka or lamb seekh kebab, charcoal-smoky from our live clay oven — or a mixed platter for the table.
Curries to share. Masti Butter Chicken, our 24-hour dal makhani, lamb rogan josh or Goan prawn balchao for the chilli lovers.
Plenty of naan. Garlic, butter or cheese — and Melbourne's only freshly baked gluten-free vegan naan.
A sweet finish. Gulab jamun, gajar halwa or kulfi.
For groups of four or more, our shared set menus make ordering simple. See the full menu and current prices →

Drinks to see the year out
Our bar is open all night with Indian-inspired cocktails, wine, beer and Indian single malts — Rampur, Amrut and Indri among them. A New Year's toast with an Indian whisky is a fine way to start 2027.
