Have A Picnis This Australia Day At The Calyx

What better way to spend Australia Day then with a picnic and some Cabernet…

The Calyx invites you to enjoy a day of utter bliss.

Marinated Kalamata olives, sundried tomato, herbs
Roasted mixed nuts

Freshly made dip

The Calyx - Function Venue Sydney

There will be free live entertainment, face painting and an Australiana themed wine bar on the terrace for everyone to enjoy – because wine and cheese go hand in hand.
