The 1st of December is – you guessed it – the 1st day of summer! oh, and it is also our whopping great Christmas market!

Our famous pavlova competition will be on again and if you hang around long enough, you might even get a taste. Bring your best pavlova to compete for money, glory and to go down in the annals as one of the greatest pavlova chefs of Bream Creek ever! Prizes for the top 3 entries and a trophy for the most outstanding.

While you wait for our judges to sample and award the greatest pavlova on the Tasman Peninsula, hang out for excellent coffee and sweet treats, and chill out listening to some fab music including the Bream Creek Ukelele Collective and our local Dunalley Christmas Choir. Don’t tell the kids but Santa might be making a special visit (sshhhhh).
