😋 New Digs, New Eats
Everyone’s favourite fresh food bar is looking… well, fresh! Cali Press Coogee has reemerged from a few days under the hammer, and it’s looking better than ever. And it’s not just the store that has undergone a makeover; the menu has been revamped with seven tasty new smoothies, a P.B.J Acai Bowl, and a Chia Berry Brekky Bowl. Your favourite health food treats, served up beachside — could it feel any more like summer!?

💪 See You On The TURF
Sydney’s hottest, hardest, and heaviest fitness comp—Under Armour’s TURF Games—is just one month away, so it’s time to ramp up that training plan.

Lucky for you, the likes of The Cube Gym, 98 Gym, and Enliven Coaching Gym are all holding joint practices up until the date so you can test your skills against some of Sydney’s elite.

Drop It Like It’s Yacht
The arrival of November means the launch of our favourite season of all: boat party season! Sydney’s infamous Yacht Social Club launches this Saturday, with an inaugural ‘Drop It Like It’s Yacht’ party. It’s Sydney’s only floating festival — a day of sunshine and sailing, all accompanied by great tunes from Sydney’s best DJs. The season opener almost always sells out, so round up the troops and secure your party boat ASAP.
The One And Only
How could we neglect to mention our very own race that stops a nation! While it’s not a public holiday here in NSW, it sure does cause a stir, so we strongly suggest you mark your social calendar for the Melbourne Cup. Every bar and restaurant in the city will be hosting a special luncheon or party event, with festivities continuing well into the wee hours (if you’ve got the stamina).
