Guests were transported by water taxi to the floating island, docked strategically in the harbour to offer panoramic view of the city. A leisurely afternoon of sips and delicious nibbles ensued with various stations offering a selection of champagne, wine and spirits from the Pernod Ricard portfolio. Champagne Mumm, ABSOLUT Elyx Martinis, Jameson Cloudy Apple were just a few of the delicious drinks on offer complemented by a selection of wines from Jacob’s Creek and Stoneleigh.

The Island is Australia’s first and only floating beach club. Since it launched in 2010, it has become the playground for private events all year round. The Island is open to the public for individuals and groups between September and May.
