Cherishing time with friends and family is our top priority, and that's why we've curated a selection of unique activity presents that will set the stage for unforgettable moments this Christmas 2023. Our diverse range of experience gifts are all about creating memories together, whether you're painting and sipping in our fun classes, crafting easy cocktail recipes or nurturing your creativity while building a terrarium. The options are endless, making it a breeze to find the perfect Christmas presents for your cherished friends! Not sure which class suits them best? We recommend the gift experience voucher option, which will grant them the freedom to handpick their preferred experience.
Finding the perfect experience gift ideas for a favourite friend or family member is much easier than you think. If you're not sure what they like, you can give them a choice of thousands of classes across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and beyond. Whether they decide to sculpt clay, cook a meal or arrange flowers, all they have to do is find a class on a date that suits them and book it with their voucher—it’s never been easier to find Christmas gifts for her, him or someone you love! If they choose an online class, we’ll also send them a beautiful DIY kit that will include all of the tools and materials you would have been given if you attended it in person. All they’ll need to do is simply log onto Zoom to find the teacher ready to teach them everything they need to know about improving their skills.
It’s never been easier to embrace the art of gifting experiences instead of material possessions than in 2023! That’s because there are so many hidden gems and things to do near you that are so much better than receiving a physical gift.
For the Sydnersiders, head to the city’s Inner West area and discover a creative studio where you can try glassblowing upstairs with artist Mark Elliot and downstairs give woodworking a go under the guidance of the amazing team from Among The Trees. If you’re on the Lower North Shore, you’re in the perfect spot for trying pottery, with funky studios like Klaypots and Silky Shapes in Crows Nest, Print Paint Pot in Artarmon and Crockd in Neutral Bay. Each offers beginner-friendly pottery classes and courses in both clay hand building and wheel throwing.
If you’re in the sunshine state and around Brisbane, you can’t go past one of Vanilla Zulu’s unmissable cooking classes in Teneriffe. From healthy Japanese dishes to authentic Italian favourites, you’ll learn how to whip up some of the tastiest food you’ve eaten. Down south on the Gold Coast, have fun with paint and sip at The Sweet Fine Artist Studio in Mermaid Beach.
Melburnians can unwind while making a one-of-a-kind Turkish mosaic lamp at Art Masterclass on Elizabeth Street in the CBD, before trying their hand at a barista course just a short walk away with Barista Course Melbourne.
No matter where you or your gift recipient is, you’re guaranteed to find a plethora of creative workshops in your neighbourhood that you can try together. Alternatively, gift your loved one a solo adventure in their local area—it sure makes for thoughtful present ideas. And if you can’t find what you’re looking for in person, one of our interactive live online classes and DIY craft kits will bring that same magic to their home!
If you’re wondering what experience you can give as a gift we have the answer! Spark creative joy for the man or woman in your life with our art, craft and culinary-related activities across Australia! Our craft classes are designed for beginners so you don’t need to worry about having any prior knowledge, but most of all, our classes are all about having fun and finding a new hobby. If your loved one has always wanted to learn how to make cocktails, improve their cooking skills, or learn how to make pottery, let us help you choose the perfect gift.
Looking for experience birthday gifts? If you're looking for birthday presents for men, why not treat your favourite grill-king to the chance to improve his BBQ skills with smoked meats in our popular BBQ classes? As summer approaches, they’ll be able to impress friends and family with their newfound BBQ cooking skills and teach everyone the tips and tricks they’ve learned. Our cocktail making classes are also really popular gifts for men (and women) too. You can choose to either learn how to make cocktails in person or through our popular online classes. While many people save cocktails for a special occasion, your loved one will learn so many tips and tricks for making their favourite cocktails.
Searching for unique gift ideas for women? If she's a bling lover, our DIY silversmithing classes are the perfect gift for her as she'll learn how to make her own jewellery, something she'll be able to cherish forever and maybe become a new passion. Our pottery classes and soy candle making classes are also really popular choices for crafty ladies looking to find a new and inspiring hobby!
Experience vouchers beat traditional gifts in several ways—let us enlighten you! Digital gift cards prioritise the creation of cherished memories over material possessions, offering recipients the gift of lasting moments and special memories. Plus, these experiences can be tailored to suit the individual's interests, showcasing a personal touch that demonstrates thoughtfulness.
To go a step further, they also contribute to a greener world by reducing carbon emissions (no shipping needed!) and clutter (say goodbye to a cupboard full of unopened gifts). Our unique experience gifts in Australia are the perfect opportunity for bonding with loved ones, with each of our hands-on workshops designed for shared participation, fostering connections and enjoying quality time. They also come with scheduling flexibility, allowing your gift recipient to choose when and where they'd like to partake.
These unique and thoughtful gifts in 2023 express your love and appreciation of your favourite people, in a super fun and accessible way. In a world focused on sustainability and meaningful experiences, these experience gift vouchers shine as a more meaningful and eco-friendly way to express your love!
It's our mission to bring out your creative side, help you unwind and relax, and even find a newfound hobby or passion. Whether it's fluid art, knitting or painting, more and more people are taking up creative hobbies because of the many well-being benefits they provide. When you take time out of daily life to do the things you truly love, you’ll feel more fulfilled, relaxed and connected to yourself. This is why we believe that the best present ideas aren't material things but cool experiences that will stick with you (and your favourite person) for life! Not convinced? Check out our huge range of experiences to give as cute gift ideas and see for yourself.
Finding time to pick the perfect present ideas can be hard, which is why our unique experience gifts are such a great option. Not only do they make great last-minute gift ideas, but you will be giving a loved one the chance to pick out new hobbies from thousands of unique activities in their local city. We want every Australian to feel like they can take part in our classes, regardless of where they live, which is why our live-streaming classes are the perfect option for anyone looking for thoughtful presents that can be enjoyed from the comfort of their own home, no matter where they’re based.
