Make a Story of The Season

New Year’s Eve is a time for stories to come together. Around shared tables, over a glass of something local, and with Hobart’s waterfront as the backdrop, the festive season has a way of turning simple moments into the ones we talk about for years to come.

This year, welcome the New Year at MACq 01 with good company and a front-row seat to the harbour.

Expect generous Tasmanian flavours, warm hospitality and moments worth sharing. After all, the best stories rarely happen in a hurry.
