Strictly limited tickets! Bookings Essential!

Tickets are exceptional value including a 3 course fine dining experience, mulled wine and show presented by Australian Singer/Songwriter Pat Drummond.

Pat Drummond is an iconic, eccentric and much loved singer/songwriter who has made a huge impact on fans of country and folk music, all over Australia.
His loyal band of supporters have followed him from his hugely successful shows at the Rest Hotel in Milson’s Point in the seventies on a journey that has taken him to large and small towns all over the country.
His highly original music crosses the genres of country, folk and rock ‘n’ roll and his musical career spans over three decades. His long career has seen him pass through a half dozen ‘reincarnations’ that have produced an incredible body of original work in as many different musical genres.
Drummond’s songs… witty, ironic, hilarious, thought provoking, angry and passionate are always beautifully crafted and are the fuel that drives his main career as a great entertainer.
