Picnic Activities and Ideas
Creative outdoor workshops for those fully vaccinated in Australia
Looking for outdoor picnic ideas in Australia that will keep you entertained for hours on end? Our curated collection of outdoor workshops is the perfect way to catch up with friends the COVID-safe way. With so many outdoor activities in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, it’s never been easier to reconnect with your friends, family and loved ones for one of the most epic picnic dates of 2025. Why not set up camp at Centennial Park and learn to make DIY flower arrangements in a whimsical class that’s perfect for private groups? Maybe you're keen to peruse the best picnic spots in Melbourne and choose your own location? Many of our outdoor classes are mobile, meaning they can come to you! Whether you want to unfurl a blanket in the sprawling grounds of Edinburgh Gardens in Fitzroy North, or you’re keen to learn how to make macrame as the sun sets by Burleigh Heads, our teachers are always open to customising their outdoor activities to suit your needs. While whipping out a fresh punnet of strawberries and some Mersey Valley cheese is one of the most classic picnic activities, why not take it to the next level with one of our fun outdoor experiences?
How to throw an incredible picnic with friends and family when lockdown ends
As Australia’s lockdown restrictions slowly start to lift and the picnic rules in NSW/Melbourne come into effect, it’s time to reconnect with the people you love the most! It’s likely you’ve already thought about the picnic food you’ll indulge in when you get together with your fully vaccinated family and friends, but you might not have considered how you’ll pass the time. Our outdoor activities are one of the best ways to explore some of the top picnic spots in Australia! In fact, in this post-lockdown period, we think they’re some of the best things to do in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and beyond. Want to learn how to make a DIY flower crown with your girlfriends? There’s a class for that! Want to learn the ukulele on the shores of Sydney’s iconic Bondi beach? We can make it happen. Perhaps you’d like to learn about beekeeping in Brisbane or make ceramic mugs in one of Melbourne's beautiful parks? No matter your niche, there are plenty of creative picnic ideas and picnic activities for adults to consider as 2025 draws to a close!
We’re here to help make your picnic experiences amazing
If, like us, you've been asking yourself "when will lockdown end?" we're here to help you make the most of the transition back to normality! Our curated collection of COVID-safe outdoor experiences will help you get back out there and enjoy the many new freedoms that will come with the government's roadmap out of lockdown in NSW. Dust off your blanket, don your favourite floral dress and prepare to host the best COVID picnic Australia has ever seen. Whether you're brainstorming romantic date ideas, couples picnic ideas or picnic activities for kids who haven't caught up in months, we'll help you plan an unforgettable afternoon that will stick with you for years to come. Under the guidance of our experienced teachers and passionate artisans, you and your loved ones can take advantage of some of the top places to picnic in your neighbourhood while also picking up new skills like flower arranging, clay hand building, painting, terrarium making and even skateboarding! When it comes to fun outdoor activities, there are plenty of fun things to do in Melbourne, Sydney and around Australia. Ready to bask in the sunshine with your friends and family? Get your picnic packs ready (or check to see if your teacher will provide snacks on the day!) and organise the ultimate crafternoon with your loved ones.
