BENNETTS LANE JAZZ CLUB, Melbourne's iconic live jazz venue will be closing mid June 2015.
The Bennetts Lane Jazz Club site has been sold.
Over the past 22 years has hosted a plethora of national and international artists.
Rumours of the closure of the Bennetts Lane Jazz Club have now been officially confirmed.
The venue is reported as being sold because of the extraordinary offer made (reportedly an eight-figure sum), rather than a failing business model or falling audiences.
Because of the size of the venue, its high profile, central location and informed artistic policy, this closure will leave a huge gap in Melbourne's jazz scene
