The Tas Midwinter dinner is on Saturday 23rd June 2012 and is open to expeditioners and Aurora Australis crew who have been ‘down south’ and their guests.

The Venue: The dinner will be held at the award winning Hobart function and conference centre.  Located at Elizabeth Street Pier, Hobart, it is a 5 minute walk (if that) from the centre of town. There is ample car parking nearby.

The meal: The 3 course meal will feature local Tasmanian produce and will be an alternate drop (e.g. fish, beef, fish, beef or whatever!).  Vegetarian options are available. 

The Bar: Drinks are not included with the meal and will need to be purchased separately. There will be a bar in the room with a good selection of beer, wine, spirits and non alcoholic drinks. 

The Seating: Seating is on round tables for ten. You may wish to reserve an entire table or two for a reunion.  If you specifically wish to sit on a particular table or with several friends, please let us know well in advance so we can organise seating together.

Accommodation:
 The website www.tripadvisor.com offers good independent advice by travellers on accomodation options in Hobart. Fountainside gets a consistently good rap, and is one of the less expensive options. It is a 10 minute walk to the MWD venue and city centre.
We have not found any accomodation packages which are truly outstanding and would suggest that you either approach accomodations individually or use www.hotelscombined.com.au, www.wotif.com.au or www.readyrooms.com.au
The hotels combined website offers some particularly good deals at less expensive prices.


  We look forward to seeing you!!!
