After a week of rain, sunny days are here again! Hooray for that! We’re pretty pumped to escape the dry indoors for a big weekend running around the city with all it has to offer.
From exercise to eats to beats, we’ve got it all.
Enjoy!
1. Truffle Festival all across Canberra
All weekend
We’re heading into a massive eight weeks as restaurants all across Canberra conjure up magical meals featuring the regions’ most famous fungus.
It’s not all just sitting down and eating, though (although that part is very good). There are truffle hunts, cooking demonstrations and plenty of other events to experience this delicious treat. Why not do a hunt followed by dinner at one of the amazing restaurants involved?

Kate Walker may love a cosy Friday night at Old Canberra inn, but she’s also discovered a fun little tour of the Inner South. Grab some friends, a bike and your tennis racket and follow in her tyre marks as she exercises, eat and drinks her way through Kingston and Manuka.
