Find booze, brushes and biodiversity at this VIP Melbourne Aquarium experience
Step aside Nemo and Dory – it’s time to find Crush (and paint him too). Sea Life Melbourne Aquarium is opening its doors after dark to offer a VIP experience with paint and sip studio, Champainting.
At this over-the-top experience, you’ll be greeted with sparkling wine before having free reign of the Aquarium’s exhibits and settling in for a guided painting session surrounded by creatures of the briny deep.
This isn’t a boozy art class like you know it, the luxurious “Champainting” package includes a practically unheard of three-hour bottomless drinks package with tipples including red and white wine, beer, house spirits and soft drinks. Gourmet grazing platters of assorted meats, cheese, antipasti and bread are also included, so you’ll be able to satisfy your craving for nibbles at the canvas.
During your exclusive self-guided after-hours journey around the Aquarium, you can check out the venue’s 2.2-million litre Oceanarium and see everything from sharks to stingrays, penguins to seahorses.
This swish experience is open for bookings at $145 a head. But make haste, tickets sell out quickly. Check out dates and book here. Go on, isn’t it better down where it’s wetter?
Thank you to TIMEOUT for the incredible write-up.
