Free Messina Ice Cream Party
Burwood Chinatown is giving away 1500 free scoops of Gelato Messina.
Overview
UPDATE: March 6, 2020 — Burwood Chinatown have announced an additional 500 free scoops and two extra flavours, strawberry sorbet and salted caramel with white chocolate.
Chinese eateries and precincts have been doing it tough of late, with some restaurants reporting an 80 percent drop in customers due to fears surrounding the coranavirus. To encourage people to head back to the area and support small local businesses, Burwood Chinatown is giving away scoops of Gelato Messina on Saturday, March 7.
The inner west precinct, which cancelled its Lunar New Year celebrations earlier this year because of community health concerns, will be handing out a whopping 1000 free scoops from 4–7pm (or until it's all gone). You can choose from four flavours, including pandan and coconut, milk chocolate with choc peanut fudge, boysenberry, and cookies and cream, and not pay a cent. Dietary requirements are accounted for, too, with vegan and gluten free options available.
Of course, it wouldn't be a party without decorations and activities, so there's also going to be a bouncy castle, balloons and face painting. Burwood also has a heap of bubble tea shops, restaurants, bars and cafes, so make sure you swing by one of those and support a struggling business while you're there.
Free Messina Ice Cream Party will run from 4–7pm.
