Kitchmas in July Brunch

Overview

First-rate cocktail bar Since I Left You is embracing the wintry weather by throwing a boozy Christmas in July party. It's filling its CBD courtyard with mulled wine, music and even snow for a festive brunch on Saturday, July 6.

The festivities will kick off with 90 minutes of bottomless cocktails from midday. Make your way through four different Kahlua-heavy espresso martinis — original, cinnamon, peppermint and gingerbread — alcoholic eggnog and the bar's beloved mulled wine. When the 1.5 hours are over, you'll be able to keep drinking these same cocktails, too, you'll just need to pay as you go.

To eat, there'll be equally festive fare in the form of SILY's famed waffles, sliders — filled with either roast pork and apple sauce, ham and onion jam or turkey and cranberry — and Christmas pudding-flavoured pikelets with custard. All this food, as well as the 90 minutes of bottomless drinks, will set you back just $50 (we suggest you snag a ticket ASAP).

Bringing the festive cheer will be DJ Klasik, spinning hip hop, R&B and disco bangers, as well as some requisite carols, of course. And the cherry on top will be the decor. Expect a heap of Christmas decorations, a tree with lots of presents and a Santa throne — oh, and a snow and fog machine, too.

Dress ups are also encouraged, so dust off your ugly jumpers, folks.

Kitchmas in July Brunch runs from midday–5pm and tickets are a very reasonable $50 per person.
