Picnics are one of the wonderful things that summer brings. Finding the right combination of friends, food, sun and a cheeky drink or two is how we like to enjoy the warmer months. And the Edinburgh Gardens in the heart of Fitzroy - a stone's throw from Brunswick Street - is a go-to spot for many a local.
The picturesque gardens date back to 1883 when sporting events were played on the surrounding ovals. With endless grassy lawns canopied by sheltering trees, Edinburgh Gardens caters to a diverse range of picnicgoers. Couples, families and groups alike flock in the warmer months to snag a prime patch of green.
Rally your friends, grab your rug, basket, gourmet goodies, and a Frisbee, bocce or bowls, because you’re about to have yourself a damn good time.
