Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

If the weather is scheduled to rain, you have four options to choose from:

1. You’re happy to risk the chance of rain and you would like to go ahead with your picnic. We also have a limited number of Gazebos* available to hire which we’ll also set up for you – the hire and setup cost is an additional $40.
2. We can reschedule your picnic to a new available date of your choice.
3. We can relocate your picnic to your hotel room or home if you live within 10km of the city.
4. We can book a sheltered location (subject to availability) for you. Venues in the Royal Botanic Gardens start from $525 and at Observatory Hill, the Rotunda is available for $810. We wouldn’t set up in public sheltered locations without a reservation – this is to avoid the risk of the location being unavailable when we turn up to set up your picnic.
5. You can exchange your picnic for a gift voucher, which you can redeem on any Experience or Product in the next three years.

The Graze & Gaze team will contact you between 24-48 hours before your picnic if the weather is scheduled to rain.

*Gazebos can only be set up at Blues Point, Kirribilli, Observatory Hill and Lavender Bay.

Your picnic will still go ahead even if cold weather is predicted. However warm blankets will be included and we highly recommend that you wear warm clothing. 

Also, our flexible booking options allow unlimited date or time changes, up to 2 days before your experience.

Each sharing Grazing box is enough to share between 2-3 guests.

For a couples Picnic, a Graze box is included to share. You can choose one of the following varieties: Antipasto, Fruit or Sweet. You can also add additional Graze boxes to your experience when booking online.

When you have an odd number of guests, e.g. 7 guests, you will receive 3 boxes, but additional contents will be added to your boxes to make sure everyone has enough food.
