A luxury island getaway and a deep-sea fishing charter are just two of the incredible prizes on offer at Hamilton’s Eat Street Northshore, which is hosting an all-out Father’s Day celebration designed to give one local dad the thrill of a lifetime.
The special “Grill, Thrill & Chill” event is set to take place this Sunday, Sept. 7, from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the popular MacArthur Avenue venue. Entry is priced at $6 for adults, while children under 13 can attend for free. Organisers have also confirmed that free parking will be available for all guests.
More Than a Meal
The event promises a full evening dedicated to celebrating dads, encouraging families to spend quality time together. Guests can explore laneways filled with gourmet food stalls, including slow-cooked beef from Moonshine Smokehouse, pork sausage lollipops from Poulet & Porc, and freshly shucked oysters from Shuck All Oysters.
To complement the food, five different bars will be operating throughout the venue, serving a variety of beverages.
Prizes Dad Will Actually Want
Adding to the excitement, two significant giveaways are available. One father will win a luxury island escape for himself and three friends to Tangalooma Island Resort. Valued at more than $972, this prize package includes a scenic catamaran cruise, a quad bike tour, lunch, and resort access.
A second major prize is a nine-hour fishing trip for two, provided by High Calibre Fishing Charters. This fishing experience, valued at over $500, comes with all bait, tackle, food, and drinks supplied. Families are encouraged to enter on behalf of their dad to increase his chances of winning.
An Evening of Entertainment
Beyond the food and prizes, the atmosphere will be filled with live music from performers across four separate stages. A special guest, artist Anthony Pieters, will perform a unique show that combines music, dance, and live speed-drawing. At the end of his performance, one lucky dad in the audience will get to take the finished portrait home. Pieters will also be offering a limited number of free portraits during the evening. Additional smaller prizes will also be given away at each stage throughout the night.
