Coming events and happenings.

For the benefit and pleasure of mothers and children alike, and the community at large, the NFP Playground has now re-opened. You can mark down Friday the 23rd of July, 2010, as the day that after months and months of frustrating visits and enquiries, the delightful charm and vitality of this part of the Park were restored. Feedback is welcome !
This time of season brings about some great joy and entertainment for all NFP visitors. Each week from now until Christmas, will feature parties and gatherings great and small, using the Park's wonderful natural facilities. If you wanted to extend that experience, the Park plays neighbour to one of Brisbane's best known facilities, The Powerhouse.
Currently there are some very entertaining shows being presented, but for us, the Sunday afternoon live sessions are the pinnacle. Big crowds regularly flock to the area and leave quite stimulated. And this, all so close to home ! We've been told that the 6 PM Friday night sessions at the Turbine Platform are popularity, in spades. And that's EVERY Friday night.
Go to the Powerhouse website for more details. www.brisbanepowerhouse.org
Information of the whereabouts of quite a number of Brisbane bands and performers can be sourced from www.brispop.com
Thinking of extending your picnic fare into something a little more expansive ? Watt Dining, described as 'the perfect place to spoil yourself and entertain friends" is but a stroll away from the well known delights of NFP. You can enhance those immeasurably, with a visit to this fine eating and lifestyle facility. All that you ever wanted to know about Watt Dining is found on www.aihgroup.com.au Others in this diverse culinary and entertaining stable are equally impressive.
CALLING ALL PHOTOGRAPHERS!
In celebration of our upcoming first 6 months, we want to see New Farm Park through your lens. In January 2010, we'll be launching a similar 6 month long photo competition that gives photographers a chance to showcase their photos of the Park. There will be, in that time, both multiple seasons and species to provide some great opportunities for the shutter-bugs amongst us.
