There’s no better way to show your Dad how much you care than by giving him a gift he’ll never forget. These Dad present ideas are the perfect way to make him feel special, no matter the occasion. Whether it’s shaking cocktails or soldering silver rings, there’s no better place for him to explore his passions. Want to make his present even more meaningful? Join in on the fun and spend quality time together doing something exciting. Finding the perfect experience gifts for Dad just got so much easier. In 2023, you can buy your favourite man something extra special and different with a gift voucher he’ll love! Not only are our creative vouchers for Dad the perfect way to give him the opportunity to take some time out to do things he really enjoys, but he'll also find thousands of incredible arts, crafts and cooking workshops, taught by some of the best local Australian makers and teachers.
When it comes to picking birthday ideas for Dad, our unique experience presents will suit every father figure in Australia! Whether you know he’ll love to sizzle up his BBQ skills or brand himself a cocktail connoisseur at a local masterclass, we have in-person and online classes to help him take his cooking, cocktail making and craft skills to the next level. Our experience vouchers make the best gifts for Dad because they are actually much more than just gifts. While we aim to help him open up to his creative side, our workshops could actually be a lifestyle change waiting to happen. By taking time out from our daily stresses, we hope our art classes will help you do something for yourself and spend quality time doing things you truly love doing. Looking for ways to bond with one another? Our gifts for dad from daughter experiences are the perfect way to show him you care.
We know your father is probably a busy person, so he’ll have the option to do our classes either in person or online. It’s important to us that we want to make sure he’s comfortable doing our classes from anywhere around Australia. Our online classes and DIY craft kits suit the busy Dad who just doesn't have time to attend a class in someone. If you think he’d prefer to join a class in his own time from the comfort of his home, he will receive a DIY craft kit at his front door with all of the materials and tools he would have been given if he attended the class in person. It’s as simple as that! If you know your Dad has been putting off learning a new skill, now is the time to help him achieve it. Our art classes are designed to help build your confidence and to continue with it, bringing ultimate happiness and improving overall wellbeing.
Dads like to try new hobbies and feel a sense of pride when they get them just right, which is why a creative workshop experience is such a great gift for him. Whether he loves being active, getting creative in the kitchen, or just wants to relax, these birthday gifts for Dad will give him the skills, knowledge and confidence to be the best he can be. We know just as well as you do that finding the perfect birthday present ideas for Dad can be a tricky task. To make it easier, here are some of the best experience gifts for him! If he loves cooking then why not treat him to one of our hands-on cooking classes? From learning how to cook the perfect Italian pizza or mastering the art of patisserie, there’s something for every foodie in Melbourne, Sydney and beyond. If he’s more of a cocktail connoisseur then our cocktail classes are ideal. He’ll explore a variety of flavours and spirits all while learning the ins and outs of mixology and crafting martinis, margaritas and negronis from scratch.
For Dads who love arts and crafts, why not give them the gift of creating something unique? Our range of indoor activities comes with everything they’ll need to make their own beautiful masterpieces, from pottery wheels and clay tools to knitting needles and yarn. Our gift cards for Dad will give him the chance to explore new hobbies, learn a skill or just take some time out from his everyday life – all while having fun in the process. With these Dad birthday experiences, you’re appealing to all his favourite interests and hobbies—what better way to show how much you love and care for him!
On the hunt for Father’s Day gifts? Surprise him this Father’s Day with an unforgettable gift in 2023. After all, he deserves to be spoilt once in a while. Experience gift ideas for Dad in Australia are the perfect opportunity for you to spend some more quality time together. If you’re not living nearby, that’s ok too. You can easily book one of our online classes and we’ll send you both the tools and materials you would have been given if you attended the class in person. When you log on via Zoom, you’ll see each other on the computer as well as our expert Australian teacher, ready to teach you everything you need to know about improving your skills with the BBQ, or learning how to make cocktails at home for example. If you think he might prefer to get out and meet like-minded people, our in-person classes are equally as popular as our online classes and can be enjoyed across Australia from Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne all the way to Perth.
Finding the perfect gift for a Dad who says they want nothing can be a challenge, but nothing will make Father’s Day more magical than spending time with his family and friends. If you’re stuck on ideas, experience gifts make the best presents for Dads who are hard to buy for! Whether he’s is a foodie, an adventurer or a creative, these fun experiences will surprise him with the chance to explore passions and interests. Get creative together at one of our pottery classes or brush up on his BBQ skills in one of our cooking classes, no matter what you choose, these experiences make great Dad present ideas if he loves quality time. What he’ll really value and remember is spending quality time with the people he loves, so if you really want to make him feel special, join in with him and have some fun! Whatever you love doing together, we have plenty of unique Father’s Day gifts that will spark your shared interests and make him feel extra special this year.
If he usually receives a bottle of whiskey or wine for Father’s Day, why not switch it up this year? Browse our curated collection of workshops and you’ll also find some incredibly unique presents for Dad's birthday and thoughtful Christmas presents for Dad. If he’s more of a foodie then surprise him with one of our delicious gourmet cooking classes. Whether you’re in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane, our talented chefs across the country will guide him through how to prepare classic dishes from different cultures as well as teach them new techniques using top-notch ingredients. At the end of the class, they’ll even get the chance to devour their delicious meals.
Whether you think he would love to flex his artistic muscles or learn how to make some delicious restaurant-worthy meals, it’s worth getting him out of his comfort zone in order to learn some new skills he can use every single day. If he could do with a little boost, our art classes are designed to help build confidence whilst you improve your skills. When you start a new passion and continue with it, it will drastically improve your overall wellbeing and happiness. So why not treat him to a new hobby and help him enjoy time out of life’s daily struggles? Stuck on which Dad presents to choose? We recommend opting for our experience vouchers, so he can choose which class he’d like to do in his own time. Give something back this Father’s Day and empower him to reignite his love of all things DIY!
