There will be designated areas for car/bike displays on the grass. This is also a free event, and there is no cost to show your gorgeous vehicles, however space on the grass is limited so register your interest before as early as possible so we can accommodate. For group displays on the grass, we request any displayed vehicles to respect the bump-in/bump-out times below for patron safety. There will also be a second parking area designated specifically for Italian cars/bikes casually attending on the day, however this parking is limited so first in best dressed.
Date: 10th December 2022.
Address: Thomas H Halton Park – Macquarie Drive, Eleebana NSW.
Event time: 9am – 3pm
Bump-in: 8am – 9am
Bump-out: 3pm – 4pm
A little more about this Inaugural event:
Thomas H Halton Park will be the epicentre for this cultural festival and will be transformed in a memorable hub of elevated family friendly atmosphere. From 9am-3pm, it will showcase local Italian business and produce from coffee, food, & artisan stalls, music (already secured an internationally classical trained Italian guitarist), an Antipasto and Aperol Spritzer Piazza with wine and cocktails, grass games for kids and families to enjoy, as well as a Christmas themed Buon Natale photo zone, Azzurri FX family football zone… and more! For those that don’t pack a picnic blanket there will be a large Hamptons marquee with traditional long tables for people to enjoy food and shade from the summer sun.
The second component to the day is – Lap of the Lake. Similar to the Covid-friendly format in 2020, participants will be armed with a “Key Map” of Lake Macquarie’s restaurants, cafes, and tourist sights. At their own leisure, participants are encouraged to create their own foodie adventure and journey around the lake whilst enjoying a few less explored and super fun roads. Destinations will vary to cater to varying tastes, budgets, and interests (ideally these will be Italian, but not essential). As a club, you could independently coordinate visiting 1-2 specific destinations that would suit your members.
