Overview

It might be the depths of winter, but new openair Abbotsford venue Abbots Yard is still dishing up a stacked calendar of events. And this weekend, it's lighting up with a program of flaming installations, tunes, cocktails and wintry eats, for the inaugural Fire & Wine Weekender.

From Saturday, July 16–Sunday, July 17, you're invited to explore its sensory garden of fire, art and music.

The weekend's live entertainment offering trips from modern jazz to soul, featuring sounds from the likes of local jazz rebels The Rookies and six-piece acid-jazz-meets-house act Cofi, plus Genki Tanaka, O Honey, fivefours and more.

The Rookies

In between jams you'll catch dazzling fire-twirling displays as you sip on cosy drinks like mulled wine and warm spiced cider. And should you need to refuel post-dance-floor, see the lineup of food trucks — from St Gerry's Greek desserts, to paninis and woodfired pizza courtesy of Puccia.

Entry is free, though you'll need to RSVP online for Saturday or Sunday to nab a spot.
