Around Redfern 8:00 am
When you’re thinking of spots to spend a sunny day in Sydney, South Eveleigh isn’t generally number one on the list. This summer, the people behind the precinct’s family-friendly activations (they hosted a whole heap of science-focused fun during the winter months, and their previous street parties have been off the charts) are hoping to change that – with South Eveleigh’s Summer Club bringing big beach energy to the city’s Inner East.
From Monday, December 2, the precinct will transform into an immersive urban summer club, complete with daily giveaways and visits from a very summery Santa.
Every day from Monday, December 2 until Sunday, December 15, the Mini Kiosk will be giving away seasonal sweet treats – everything from fresh coconuts to mini pavlovas – and the first 130 customers to spend more than $10 at any retailer in the precinct will score a free summer accessory (choose from caps, tote bags and towels) from the Summer Club Kiosk.
Visitors to the area can also join volleyball games, test their surfing skills on the mechanical wave rider, hit the foam pool or kick back in the chill zone beneath an umbrella.
If you’re keen to see the big man himself, Santa will be hitting the (mechanical) surf on Tuesdays, Thursday and Saturdays – available to snap Christmassy pics and take note of your present requests.
The precinct will also be home to a “Sandy Clause Photo Booth” for your team and family festive shots, and throughout the two week program entertainment will be provided by balloon artists, face painters and DJs.
The events will run between 8am and 5pm on weekdays, and from 10am until 4pm on Saturdays. You can learn more and plan your visit over here.
