Entries are now open to win a two-night accommodation and experience package in Port Phillip, as part of Council’s ‘Stay and Play’ summer staycation campaign.
Whether you’re from regional Victoria and after a long-awaited city break, visiting friends for the first time in months, or reacquainting yourself with all Port Phillip has to offer, the two prizes up for grabs, a family trip and an urban grown-up getaway, have been designed to take the guess work out of a weekend away, showcasing the very best of the City.
If you missed out on taking a family holiday in 2020, the family package is sure to tick all the boxes for even the fussiest of children. Your new home-away-from-home is a two-bedroom apartment with parking at Quest St Kilda Road, the perfect location to enjoy the included experiences, such as a family stand-up paddle boarding class and family passes to Escape Room Melbourne and Luna Park. To top it off, there’s a $50 voucher to St Kilda’s Europa Cake Shop on Acland Street and a $200 dining voucher to an Australian Venue Co venue.
The urban grown-up getaway has all the makings of a romantic weekend away, with two nights’ accommodation with parking at Quest St Kilda Road. Fill you day by heading to the MIRKA exhibition at the Jewish Museum of Australia (double pass included), before stopping by St Kilda’s Europa Cake Shop and using your $50 voucher to refuel before an evening of fun. Included in this package is a dinner voucher to award-winning Elwood restaurant, Dandelion, and a $150 drinks and dining voucher to an Australian Venue Co venue, so there’s no excuse not to explore the gastronomic delights of Port Phillip.
Mayor Louise Crawford said the competition was designed to highlight all the wonderful things to do in Port Phillip.
“We’re so lucky to have everything on our doorstep; from world-class restaurants and cultural hubs, to a wide variety of sports and activities to ensure you’ll never hear the dreaded “I’m bored” again. Our businesses are more than ready to welcome everyone back to our great City and now is a great time to check out old favourites and make new discoveries. We’re welcoming entries from all over Victoria, so it doesn’t matter if you’re from Burwood or Bendigo, we’d love to have you enter our competition and explore Port Phillip,” Cr Crawford said.
“I’d like to thank the following businesses for their donations to make this competition possible: Quest St Kilda Road, Australian Venue Co, Stand Up Paddle Board Melbourne, Europa Cake Shop, Escape Room Melbourne, Luna Park Melbourne, Jewish Museum of Australia and Dandelion.”
