A FESTIVE SEASON, FAR FROM THE ORDINARY

Celebrate the Season at THE CHEFS TABLE at Blue Duck Station

Choose from two rare festive stays at THE CHEFS TABLE, exclusively for your private group.

Gather your closest people and settle into the rhythm of our remote station. Across two nights, the experience unfolds with thoughtful food, time together and space to simply be.

Two festive stays, each spanning two nights. Choose Christmas or New Year.

CHRISTMAS: December 24 & December 25, 2026

NEW YEAR: December 31 & January 1, 2027

Private whole hire · Up to 8 guests · Two-night stay

Arrive, explore, gather

Your journey begins with an afternoon ATV bush safari, exploring the landscape of Blue Duck Station before arriving at THE CHEFS TABLE from 4pm.

As evening falls, settle in for our signature tasting menu and wine pairing, an intimate introduction to the food, place and people that bring the experience to life.

Christmas Eve dinner from 6pm · New Year’s Eve dinner from 7pm

NIGHT ONE

A day to celebrate

Begin with a relaxed breakfast before the afternoon unfolds with drinks and canapés from 2pm.

From 3pm, gather for a generous three-course banquet, served with a selection of wines, and designed for sharing. The evening continues at an unhurried pace, finishing with cheese and charcuterie.

For Christmas, it is a long, leisurely day of celebration. For New Year’s Day, the afternoon leads into an evening of festivity to mark the first day of the year.

NIGHT TWO

Join us in celebration

These seasonal experiences are available exclusively as private two-night stays for one group of up to eight guests.

CHRISTMAS: December 24 & December 25, 2026
