Tickets now reduced to £40 each!
Saturday 21st October, 6:30pm till 1am. Tickets on sale till 12pm Monday 16th October. We’re too late for the goldrush but with the variety of deserts, tropical rainforest or mountains there will be lots to see. Home of the Aborigines and the Tasmanian Devil there will be plenty to discover. No boomerangs allowed as too dangerous, stockmen can come with their sheilas but mustn’t bring sheep. Poisonous snakes not allowed but there may be a kangaroo or two. So hit the frog and toad and make sure you get your tickets. It’s going to be another fantastic night! Bookings for tables of 10 will receive 2 free bottles of wine.
