Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is Graze & Gaze and how does it work?

Graze & Gaze offers luxury private picnic experiences in Sydney. Once your book, leave everything to us. We take care of setting up your picnic along with fresh food & drinks, so all you need to do is to turn up and enjoy!

Follow these 6 steps to book:

Choose your Graze & Gaze experience. You can view all of the Graze & Gaze experiences here.
Book your experience. All of the available session times on our webite are correct and up to date. When booking, you’ll also be asked for your preferences, including Graze board, beverage, location and personalised message board.
You will receive a confirmation email and SMS with your exact experience location.
Turn up at your experience start time. A Graze & Gaze team member will greet you on arrival.
Enjoy your experience! The Graze & Gaze team member will leave you unattended but you can call or text us if required.
At the end of your experience, a Graze & Gaze team member will return to make sure you’re happy. And after you’ve left, we will clean & pack away your event.

What happens if wet weather is predicted?

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

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.
We can reschedule your picnic to a new available date of your choice.
We can relocate your picnic to your hotel room or home if you live within 10km of the city.
We can book a sheltered location (subject to availability) for you. Venues in the Royal Botanic Gardens start from $600 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.
You can exchange your picnic for a credit voucher, which you can redeem on any Experience or Product in the next 12 months.

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.

What happens if cold weather is predicted?

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 date or time changes, up to 2 days before your experience.
