If you’re like us, you’re probably still adjusting to the fact that it’s the King’s Birthday instead of the Queen’s Birthday public holiday now! Nevertheless, we’re happy to have the public holiday, and to help you make the most of the long weekend we have rounded up the best things to see, eat, and do in South Bank!
Sunday Social
There is no better way to relax into your long weekend than to set yourself up with an epic picnic at Sunday Social on the Green while listening to the smooth tunes of the Groove or Die trio. Pro-tip: get yourself a luxe picnic hamper from one of the retailers at River Quay. Trust us, it’ll make your Sunday Social experience that much more enjoyable!
Collective Markets
Bargain hunters and lovers of unique finds, we’ve got the perfect activity for you this long weekend! We are of course talking about the Collective Markets at South Bank that run from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon on Little Stanley Street. You’ll find everything from delicious eats, art, collectibles, fashion, and much more! If you’re on the hunt for a unique gift or just to treat yourself to a leisurely stroll and shop - this is the weekend spot for you!
Drop-In Studio Sessions at Cork & Chroma
While you're enjoying the markets, why not set aside a little therapeutic me-time with Cork & Chroma’s drop-in studio sessions?! Let your creativity take the lead to create a masterpiece with all the art materials you need for $25pp. If you would prefer to be guided by a pro artist, they’ll guide you with creative direction for $35pp to advance your artistic skills.
Bottomless Trombas & Tacos at Mucho Mexicano
Spice up your long weekend plans with a Bottomless Trombas & Tacos experience at Mucho Mexicano! On Saturday and Sunday from 11am gather your crew and book in for your two and a half hour session of indulging in frozen or mini tromba margaritas and delectable soft taco feast! Take your pick of sticky wagyu beef cheek, grilled achiote chicken, roasted cauliflower, pulled pork, beer-battered snapper, or pumpkin & haloumi!
Sunday Roast Night at Hop & Pickle
We couldn’t think of anything more appropriate for celebrating the King's Birthday long weekend than to indulge in a classic quintessential British Sunday roast night at Hop & Pickle! Skip the cooking, leave it up to the pros, and enjoy a roast feast with 3 different types of meat on offer – we’re talking beef, pork, and chicken! Accompanied by perfectly roasted potatoes, vegetables, and all the trimmings, including rich gravy, their very own horseradish recipe, and fresh Yorkshire puddings! Plus, soak up the epic atmosphere with live music by Clever Bob from 2pm.
