Daydreams and Ice Cream

Overview

In its former life, West End's West Village precinct was home to the Peters ice cream factory. As a result — and because ice cream is tasty — it doesn't miss an opportunity to remind Brisbanites of that fact. Indeed, you might've licked your way through its Ice Cream Festival in previous years, or moseyed along to its pop-up bar inspired by the frosty dish. And from Friday, November 13–Sunday, November 29, you can treat both your eyes and your tastebuds to its latest dessert-inspired shenanigans.

There are multiple parts to Daydreams and Ice Cream. Yes, eating ice cream is one of them. Head by on weekends — from 4–8pm on Fridays and Saturdays, and from 2–6pm on Sundays — to feast on dishes from a heap of ice cream vendors. There'll be live music then, too, in case you need a soundtrack.

Running daily, the other attraction is Daydreams and Ice Cream's installations. If you went along to Sugar Republic when it was in town, you'll know the kind of thing you're in for. At West Village, there'll be 12 sections all in a circle — so get ready to be surrounded by ice cream-style hues and imagery, and to get snapping.
