Indulge in a feast featuring roast turkey, glazed ham, roasted vegetables, mince pies, and warm mulled wine. Prepare for some hilarious Christmas cracker jokes, a crackling log fire, and maybe even a visit from Santa Claus himself!
But that’s not all. In the true spirit of Christmas, we’re giving back to our community. All profits from this event will be donated to Waminda, a local organization dedicated to supporting women and their Aboriginal families in achieving health and well-being.
Your ticket includes a delightful three-course lunch, exciting kids’ activities, and live music to keep the festivities going. The bar will be open for you to purchase drinks, or you can choose to add-on to your booking. Kids under 5 are free, so bring the whole family!
