Lakeside Long Lunch

COVID-19 Announcement

Due to the ongoing health risks surrounding the outbreak of COVID-19, we must sadly confirm that the Lakeside Long Lunch 2020 will be rescheduled (yet again)to a new date in 2021.Though this is an extremely tough decision to make – we always take the health and safety of our guests, staff, vendors and artists extremely seriously. 

As we move closer to our new date on October 3rd, we’ve had to be much more realistic in our assessment of the situation at hand. We’ve made every effort to stay optimistic and move forward as planned but the ever-changing restrictions and the fear of ‘second wave’ ramifcations indicate that we simply cannot host the fun-filled, wine-drinking, booty shaking event that we’ve promised all our ticket holders to enjoy in 2020. 

The Lakeside Long Lunch 2021 will now take place on Saturday the 24th of April (did someone say ANZAC Day Long Weekend!?) and guarantee the same great entertainment, great food and wine in the same great day out down by the lakes at the Sydney International Regatta Centre. We can also happily confirm, we’ve secured Sneaky Sound System and Thirsty Merc to join Shannon Noll, Voli K, Suite Az and Top Shelf to consolidate the Lakeside Long Lunch entertainment line-up for this year. All tickets from our previous 2 dates will be valid come event day.

As small business owners, we are encouraging ticket holders to #keepyourticket if it is at all possible, and help keep the events industry alive. By not requesting a refund and holding onto your ticket, you will not only be supporting the artists and vendors at our event but the hospitality workers, support staff and small businesses who work tirelessly behind the scenes to bring you so much entertainment and enjoyment at events just like the LLL. 

We thank you for your patience and continued support. We look forward to having a vino and a boogie at Lakeside 2021 when it rolls around on

April 24th!
