Start your engines folks, the F1 Australian Grand Prix is back in Melbourne. If you missed out on getting tickets, or you'd simply prefer a more relaxed and quiet space to catch the high-octane races, the Albert Park Hotel is hosting an F1 pop-up garden bar from March 31 to April 2.
Kick your feet up from 12pm daily in the al fresco space where the F1 will be streaming from an array of screens. The menu will feature limited-edition cocktails like the Apricot and Ginger Highball and the Peach Cooler, as well as an array of bar snacks and dishes. Think five-spiced pork belly skewers, Peking duck bao and Sichuan fried shiitake mushrooms. Diners can get dishes à la carte style or mix and match offerings to curate their own platter.
Once the F1 has wrapped up, DJs will be on deck to spin tunes late into the evening. You can book your table through the Albert Park Hotel website.
