Five Places ~ Five Courses ~ One Epic Night

Join us for a celebration of PROG Rock, as the Walcha Business Group delivers a progressive dinner, hosted across five different venues around Walcha, all within an easy 1.1km walking route.

Enjoy five separate courses, beautifully paired with a specialty drink, and explore the symphonic journey of tastes and sounds as you sing, dance and eat.

Your ticket covers all five food courses and five drinks (one at each venue). Extra drinks can be purchased additionally, if required, at any of the venues.

Dress up in elaborate costumes and be fascinated by the long solos, fantastic lyrics and grandiose decor associated with this interesting musical genre.

The included menu is below. Alternatives for dietary requirements are available. Menu items are subject to change.

The Boring Stuff: All tickets must be pre-paid and are not transferable throughout the event.

A set amount of time has been allocated for each course and travel between each venue. We ask that you stick to this as closely as possible to enable food to be served at each venue in its best condition.

The total distance of the walk is 1.1km, divided into 4 parts.

We value the responsible service of alcohol and will support any venue who refuses a ticket holder service of alcohol due to intoxication.
