It pays to wander down to the southern banks of the Yarra River this summer, because what you'll find is the Lillet Secret Garden Pop-Up Bar. The pop-up will take over the lawn of The Common Man on South Wharf, opening the gate in its white picket fence from Mon Dec 19 until Tue Feb 28 in 2017. This is where you can spend an balmy evening overlooking the city skyline and the Yarra while you play petanque and neck summery vermouth cocktails.
The venue will be dressed to the nines in classic garden party style, with AstroTurf and floral decorations, and drinks will be served from Lillet's vintage wooden drinks cart. Guests can enjoy fruity Lillet cocktails for $10 (or $36 per jug) as well as food specials from the Common Man kitchen.
Happily, entry is free, but you'll have to be over 18 to get amongst the action from noon until late every day.
