   FloorPlay
   
  Incorporating familiar music, fun, and energetic moves, FloorPlay provides kids with a fun 45 minute session amongst the beautiful fresh air and scenery at NewActon. Learning basic coordination and movements, FloorPlay gives them an opportunity to discover the joys of movement whilst burning off some energy. Parents can enjoy a nice coffee, indulgent snack or cool refreshing drink at one of the cafes while watching your kids have a ball while they learn. DANCE - PLAY - ENJOY.

   Real Food, Real People
   
  Breakfast is the best time of the day to learn something new. Once you’ve got that first cuppa within reach, all the darkness and gloom associated with waking is lifted and your subconscious is open and refreshed. Commencing in September, Urbanfood Store + Cafe are presenting Real Food Real People, a series of relaxed presentations over brekkie. This is your opportunity to hear from and meet a bunch of local farmers and producers who supply the store.

Performances rotate between Parlour, Flint and Du Jour and run from May to October.

   Urban DJ
   
  When you think ‘live music’ you don’t really think ’DJ’ and you probably don’t think about toast either. Well that’s just the sort of old-school hooey we aim to quash with Urban DJ – Toast to Live Music! Presented by Urbanfood every Sunday from 10.30am to 1.30pm. It’s all about laying down some good beats – and we’re not just talking about the eggs.
