Helping Heroes on the Lawn
Hang out by the river, listen to live music, drink beer and support bushfire relief fundraising efforts.
Overview
Joining the lengthy list of Brisbane organisations, venues and groups throwing their support behind bushfire relief fundraising efforts, Howard Smith Wharves is dedicating Saturday, February 8 to this immensely worthy cause. On offer is an afternoon and evening of live music, food, drinks, lawn games, table tennis and hanging out on the grass at the riverside precinct, with 100 percent of the proceeds being donated to WIRES, the NSW Rural Fire Service, and the Queensland Fire and Emergency Services.
From midday, Helping Heroes on the Lawn will feature roving entertainment, performances by Samantha Jade and Alfie Arcuri, and pop-up bars serving up Pimms, Aperol spritzes and Moët — plus tasty bites from food trucks CharKOR BBQ, Barcelona Churros and How We Rolls.
That's in addition to HSW's usual lineup of places to eat and drink. Felons Brewing Co is donating all profits from sales of its Natural Ale in January and February anyway, and it'll have its fire truck out pouring the tipple in question on the day.
Foodback Australia will also be in attendance, manning drop-off stations — so you can donate canned and dry goods to help those who need it.
