Community eventHigh Tea & Trivia Through The Decades | Fun & Ageless
Friday 27 November · 11am–2pm
Currumbin
Join us for an afternoon of fun, friendship, trivia and memories as we celebrate Fun & Ageless and all the wonderful moments we’ve shared this year. Most of all, it’s a chance to say thank you for being part of Fun & Ageless and helping make it so special. Your ticket includes High Tea and a drink on arrival, so all you need to bring is your best trivia knowledge and your love of a good time. Bring a friend or come along on your own — we’ll make sure you’re seated at a table and part of a team on the day. How it works: Each table is a team of up to 10 people. Bring a full table of friends and family, or come along on your own or with a small group. If your group is smaller than 10, we’ll combine you with others so everyone has a team to play with. There’s no need to register as a team ahead of time, simply book your spot and find your table on arrival. Our team will also be there to help pair you up with a team on the day, if needed. It’s a great opportunity to meet new people, put your knowledge to the test and enjoy some friendly competition. Doors open at 11am, so come early, grab a drink, and settle in with your team and decide your team name. Trivia kicks off at 11:30am with two rounds, and then it's time for a break to enjoy high tea. After that, we'll finish up with three more rounds. We'll be travelling through the decades, with a round each for the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and noughties. There'll be prizes for first, second and third place, but the real point is to have a laugh, catch up with old friends and meet a some new ones. The more the merrier!

**2ND SHOW ADDED DUE TO POPULAR DEMAND 📍DOORS OPEN: 7:30 PM 📍SET TIME: 8:00PM - 9:30PM 📍CLOSE: 9:45PM Patrick James – Live in Concert Experience an intimate evening of songs and stories with Patrick James — an Australian singer-songwriter whose heartfelt sound and honest storytelling have taken him across Australia, Europe, and the UK. After a huge run of Australian and European shows throughout 2024, including headline dates and festival appearances across Germany, the Netherlands, France, Switzerland and the UK, Patrick is back home and shifting his focus toward a new and very special chapter: regional hall concerts across Australia. Wanting to reconnect with audiences in a more personal way, Patrick is building a touring cycle centred around small towns, community spaces, and atmospheric listening rooms — creating concerts that feel intimate, meaningful and truly unique. With multiple albums, millions of streams, and a reputation for warm, emotionally rich performances, Patrick continues to grow a dedicated global audience. His latest record, Glory Days (2024), follows the acclaimed I’ll Take Care of Myself, If You Take Care of Yourself (2022), described by Atwood Magazine as “bold and beautifully timeless” for its emotional depth and craftsmanship. Over more than a decade of touring, Patrick has shared stages with Boy & Bear, Pete Murray, Josh Pyke, The Paper Kites, Dope Lemon, and Bear’s Den, and has reached listeners worldwide through songs such as “Grateful” — a Vanda & Young Songwriting Competition finalist that featured prominently in Channel 7’s Olympic Games coverage. Patrick’s regional hall shows create a quiet, candlelit atmosphere where the music and stories take centre stage — offering something distinctly different from traditional venue touring. Join Patrick James for a rare, one-night-only performance — an intimate, heartfelt concert in a beautiful regional setting. FOLLOW ON SOCIAL MEDIA. https://www.instagram.com/patrickjamesmusic/?hl=en
