Our curated collection of outdoor workshops is the perfect way to catch up with friends the COVID-safe way. With so many outdoor activities in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, it’s never been easier to reconnect with your friends, family and loved ones for one of the most epic picnic dates of 2024. Why not set up camp at Centennial Park and learn to make DIY flower arrangements in a whimsical class that’s perfect for private groups? Maybe you're keen to peruse the best picnic spots in Melbourne and choose your own location? Many of our outdoor classes are mobile, meaning they can come to you! Whether you want to unfurl a blanket in the sprawling grounds of Edinburgh Gardens in Fitzroy North, or you’re keen to learn how to make macrame as the sun sets by Burleigh Heads, our teachers are always open to customising their outdoor activities to suit your needs. While whipping out a fresh punnet of strawberries and some Mersey Valley cheese is one of the most classic picnic activities, why not take it to the next level with one of our fun outdoor experiences?

How to throw an incredible picnic with friends and family when lockdown ends

As Australia’s lockdown restrictions slowly start to lift and the picnic rules in NSW/Melbourne come into effect, it’s time to reconnect with the people you love the most! It’s likely you’ve already thought about the picnic food you’ll indulge in when you get together with your fully vaccinated family and friends, but you might not have considered how you’ll pass the time. Our outdoor activities are one of the best ways to explore some of the top picnic spots in Australia! In fact, in this post-lockdown period, we think they’re some of the best things to do in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and beyond. Want to learn how to make a DIY flower crown with your girlfriends? There’s a class for that! Want to learn the ukulele on the shores of Sydney’s iconic Bondi beach? We can make it happen. Perhaps you’d like to learn about beekeeping in Brisbane or make ceramic mugs in one of Melbourne's beautiful parks? No matter your niche, there are plenty of creative picnic ideas and picnic activities for adults to consider as 2024 draws to a close!
