Mother's Day with Emelia Jackson

  • Entertainment
  • Events

Celebrate Mother’s Day with an exclusive high tea by MasterChef winner Emelia Jackson at The Ian Potter Queen’s Hall, State Library Victoria. Enjoy a glass of Champagne on arrival, live acoustic music, and an opulent menu of sweet and savoury treats - think poached chicken sandwiches, Paris-Brest, and lemonade scones. A dedicated vegetarian menu is also available, and kids will love their own special selection.

Purchase Emelia's cookbook on the day, get it signed, and recreate her tasty new recipes every time you visit Mum, the perfect way to spoil both her and yourself on a regular basis. Soak up the hall’s historic grandeur, with soaring ceilings and gorgeous architecture. Each session lasts about two hours, with staggered start times.

Arrive ten minutes early, then settle in for an unforgettable day of fine food, music, and MasterChef flair.
