Whats On This Winter

PLENTY TO ENJOY AT CASEY CORNUCOPIA

Immerse yourself in a phantasmic artscape to tantalize the senses at the Casey Cornucopia, part of the city’s Winter Arts Festival.

From June 25th to July 17th, 2022, Bunjil Place will be transformed into an intriguing wonderland celebrating local produce. The Cornucopia Garden, designed in collaboration with Bompas and Parr, will lead you through an exhibition of oversized sculptures amidst a world-first swirling edible mist.

Tempt your tastebuds at the Cornucopia’s pop-up market stall food hub. Featuring culinary delights from across Casey-Cardinia, the hub also offers a rare opportunity to  meet local farmers and growers, artisans, sustainability experts and artists who will be hosting daily talks, demos, samples and workshops.

Book a tour to go behind the scenes and learn how the Cornucopia was created, as well as getting an inside look into how our local food is grown and produced. Go in for a once-in-a-lifetime experience with the Immersive Dinner, to be held on Friday 1st and Saturday 2nd of July, bringing together the whimsical delights of the festival along with music and performance.

ROCK INTO WINTER AND LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL

Dust off your poodle skirt and slick back your hair, we’re doing the timewarp again! Rockin’ Retro @ the Grove is bringing back all the thrills and spills of the 50s and 60s for a jam-packed afternoon of rollicking fun.

The charming Pine Grove Hotel in Beaconsfield Upper will host the bash, with a delectable high tea spread. While you sip and nibble to your heart’s content, enjoy a host of themed delights including:

• Fashion parade with retro clothing boutique Miss Flamingo

• Live music from local band The Weathered Heads

• Rock ‘n’ Roll dance show with the talented performers from

Alley Catz and more

• Vintage and Classic car club outside (weather permitting)

Come in costume for a chance at the Best Dressed door prize, participate in a silent auction, raffles and trivia, and get snap happy with lots of photo opportunities.

The ticketed event, set to hit it off on Sunday, 10th July, is raising funds for a special birthday bash. The Sacred Heart Church in Gembrook turns 100 this year, and all money raised during Rockin’ Retro will go toward hosting a special celebration of this milestone.
