Also, enjoy a fathers day 'Dad’s Lounge', last-minute gifts, and a hilarious family photo at Awkward Portraits’ double denim-themed shoot.
Plus low-cost craft workshops for all ages, free tastings, and DJs spinning all-vinyl sets.
Join Michael Madrusen from The Everleigh for a 60min masterclass. 2-3pm, 6 and 7 Sep. $55pp.
