NOTE: This event is only for Australian Defence Force members and families.

Canberra ADF families—Bring your own picnic or cheese platter and join us at Willis Park, Duntroon. Don’t forget your picnic rug or chairs so you can relax on the lawn, or groove to live music from the band while the kids play. There will be a jumping castle, Velcro wall, fairy floss and popcorn plus heaps of other activities to keep everyone entertained. And we’ve got a photo booth with a twist—watch as your pics are transformed into a mosaic art wall!

This event is open to all ADF families—with children or without, couples, parents, single members.....
