Rally the foodie crew — Providore Park is back for its third (and tastiest) year, taking over Roma Street Parkland from 30 to 31 August. Expect a weekend of next-level eats, icy drinks, live tunes, and luxe picnic energy — all with free entry. Just bring your appetite.
Inside The Village
At the heart of the action is The Village, where over 40 legends will be slinging everything from cult favourites (Doughcraft, Naldham House) to street-style snacks from That Arancini Guy, Catch & Kiss Seafood, and Gelato a Go-Go. It’s your one-stop shop for flavour. New to the scene is Café Social, a dreamy, bookshop-inspired prosecco bar — because reading with Drop of Sunshine bubbles is totally a vibe. Plus, don’t miss the Artisan precinct for locally made jewellery and homewares, then swing past Lune, Sprout or Mountain River Patisserie for the ultimate flaky finale.
Ready to picnic, but make it chic?
Pre-order a gourmet hamper, pour a glass of Champagne Taittinger or Tar & Roses Pinot Grigio (yes, in real glassware), and soak up the sunshine. Or take things lakeside at The Peach Pit, a brand-new cocktail lounge serving Seabourne Distillery sips, premium wine, snacky bites from Lanai Noosa and DJ sets with serious groove. Entry is free, or go boujee with a private booth for six – think cocktails on arrival, snacks, and your own bar tab.
Long lunch fans, listen up
The Let’s Lunch series is serving up a three-course shared menu crafted by Ghanem Group, paired with Tar & Roses wines and hosted at stunningly styled tables. It’s exclusive, elevated, and guaranteed to sell out. Prefer a more chilled-out spot? Head to the Stone & Wood Garden Lounge for live local music, a view of the main stage, and all the cold brews you need to stay breezy.
Want to dive deeper?
Book in for extra tastings and tours — from bubbles and bites with Good Grace, to gin sessions with Seabourne Distillery, or a sweet chat about bees with Bee One Third. It’s the delicious deep dive you didn’t know you needed.
Providore Park hits Roma Street Parkland from 9AM to 5PM on 30 to 31 August 2025. Tickets drop 10AM Thursday 31 July so add it to the cal so you don’t miss out.
