The cafe has been in recess for four months to allow for the recruitment of more volunteers to run it.
Midnite Cafe volunteer and music director Jordan Smith has issued an open invitation to “come down, hang out, play card games, have coffee and listen to live music” from 6pm to midnight.
Everyone is welcome including families and youth aged 12 to 17.
“We’re trying to create that space where young people can come along and hang out,” Mr Smith said.
Dubbo City Youth Council has thrown its support behind Midnite Cafe where an art exhibition and live music is planned for Saturday night.
They won’t be the only drawcards.
Mr Smith said a “couple of the boys” from Team Zircon of Dubbo College Senior Campus would also attend.
This month the team was awarded second place at the World 4x4 Final in Coventry, England.
Pokemon Go trainers should also be dropping lures.
“Anyone of any age can play Pokemon Go, which is awesome,” Mr Smith said.
“They can come along, hook up to the free internet and play all night.”
Midnite Cafe is on the corner of Darling and Wingewarra streets, adjacent to Victoria Park.
Entry is free but donations will help pay for Dubbo College Senior Campus student Natalie McMahon’s participation in the University of Singapore’s science summer camp.
