TGI Fridays, The Jam Factory, 500 Chapel Street, South Yarra

What a great place to celebrate U.S. Independence Day with our Melbourne Social Group.

The Friday's restaurant chain was founded in 1965 in New York City, featuring standard American cuisine, bar food, and alcoholic beverages and still has American style food predominantly with a Creole feel to it.

Friday’s restaurants have a long history of innovation, including being credited with: Naming ‘happy hour’, Inventing the Long Island Iced Tea and Loaded Potato Skins.
The Friday’s restaurant is synonymous with ‘flair bartending’. In the mid 1980s, the restaurant created the first World Bartender Championships to honour the famous, trend-setting, bottle-tossing style of Friday’s bartenders around the globe. This tradition continues today!

Hall of Fame winner 2007-2009 for Themed/Entertainment Restaurant.

Come and enjoy a great night out and visit some of the many venues on Chapel Street afterwards.

The Cue Club - 277 Brunswick Street, Fitzroy

Join your Fun, Food and Friendship friends for a night of pool-playing in downtown Fitzroy.

The Cue Club is a huge set of pool rooms with that Fitzroy touch - second hand couches, a grungy bar, pinball games and even live bands. Carpet and artwork bring warmth to the venue, and plenty of room ensures space to sit without getting a cue up your backside.

The bar area is great to hang out if you're wanting to take a break between rounds, as it's quite large and kept very separate from the pool action.

Meet Kerrie-Anne at Cue Club bar or look for us at the FunFF tables in the pool room if you arrive a bit later.

Getting There:
From the city, take tram 112 from Collins Street and get off at Johnston Street. Cue Club is on the city side of Johnston Street, just before Victoria Street.

Riverland Cafe and Bar, Vault 1-9, Federation Wharf, (near Princess Bridge)

The Circus Oz show is a high-energy animal free spectacular. It is bursting with colour, comedy and breathtaking feats designed to excite everyone.

The show is also a playful theatrical subversion of the idea of 'circus.' They shamelessly plunder the traditions of conventional circus and blend them with topical issues, relevant imagery, contemporary music, physical theatre and comedy. All to the beat of a spectacular live band.

A fabulous and flamboyant chanteuse may appear from the sky and set the stage alight while belting out a cabaret song as acrobats surround her in a series of human pyramids. Or you may even see ten performers hitching a ride on the same bike...

The show runs for about 2 hours and currently has an interval of 20 minutes and features a live band

Circus Oz is held at the Big Top at Birrarung Marr, near Federation Square. The show starts at 7.30pm

We have great Adult A Reserve tickets.

Hallelujah! Join the FunFF folks for a for a lazy Sunday of great wine and unbelievably good gospel music.

Gospel Sunday Sessions have taken up residency at a lovely, understated upstairs bar area in the middle of Yarraville, Aqua e Vino.

The bar itself offers a great wine selection, award winning (and pricey) cocktail selection as well as food and bar snacks. The décor is relaxed with large chesterfield sofas nestling by bay windows and quirky artwork donning the opposing walls.

The sounds you can expect to hear, as the name suggests, are full blown uplifting gospel with a James Brown, rhythm and blues backing that hits you in the face sending shivers up and down your spine. The voices on the three lead singers rival that of any you will hear in Melbourne and the four piece band create a sound barley contained within the walls of this fine establishment. Music can be heard from the relaxed, slow moving main street and as you enter through the large staircase, you are greeted by a plethora of smiles from all ages and all backgrounds.

Gospel Sundays is a fantastic day out that will leave you feeling refreshed, cultured and truly lucky!

The venue can get quite warm once the music is in full swing and people start moving their feet so dress light and take advantage of the free drink card that your $10 entry fee provides!

Meet Kerrie-Anne under the clocks at Flinders Street Station (we'll be catching the 4.05 train to Yarraville). Alternatively, meet us at the venue - gospel sessions start from 4.30. All food and drinks at own expense.

Come on and ride the Blues Train! Join the FunFF gang and sometimes host, Kerrie-Anne, and help celebrate her 40th birthday aboard the Legendary Blues Train.

Nothing captures the spirit of the blues quite like a steam train. Listening to the train whistle and the clickety-clack on the tracks you can imagine the old blues masters jamming it up on Mississippi freight trains as they were 'ridin’ the blinds' around America’s deep south.

The Blues Train begins its journey at the historic town of Queenscliff and runs along the old Geelong train line, stopping in turn Suma Park historic homestead and winery, and then at Drysdale before turning around and making its way back to Queenscliff, again via Suma Park, gently rocking from side-to-side, seemingly in beat with the music coming from the bands.

At each of the stops, we swap carriages to see another of the acts, so by the end of the night we will have seen all four acts performing on the train. Our birthday bash line-up includes Tom Richardson & Eddie Boyle, Luke Watt, Chris Wilson Band and Andrea Marr Band. You can sit back, relax and listen to the music with a drink in one of the seated carriages or get up and boogie the blues away in one of the dance carriages, all while having a good laugh with your FunFF friends.

Price includes return transport to Queenscliff from the Arts Centre, light refreshments on the way to Queenscliff, Legendary Blues Train ticket and a full buffet meal before the Blues Train journey. Please note that drinks are not included in the ticket price and there is NO BYO on the Blues Train. Drinks are available from the mobile bar that miraculously appears on each platform (from the converted guard’s van). CASH ONLY for drink purchases - there are NO credit card or EFTPOS facilities on board.

Please meet Kerrie-Anne at the coffee stand outside the Arts Centre at 4.30pm. Bus will leave at 5pm sharp to ensure we arrive in Queenscliff in time to board the train, so don't be late!

You don't have to dig the blues to enjoy the Blues Train, you just have to be open to a really good time!! Tickets are strictly limited, so be sure to book early to avoid missing out on what is sure to be a great night! Please include any special dietary requirements you may have in the comments section when you book, so that we can advise the caterers on your behalf.
