Come Saturday, 25th April, Aussie bistro & bar Boomarang at Robertson Quay will play host to hundreds of frolicking bare feet.

To commemorate ANZAC Day here, local Aussie and Kiwi expatriates in teams of two will battle it out against each other in traditional style, with a game of Barefoot Bowls - the Australian versi...on of lawn bowls made casually popular in the last decade where players take off their shoes to play.

A green carpet of “lawn” will be set up near the bistro’s riverfront terrace and delicious barbeque dishes and cool beers will accompany the merrymaking which will start at 10am for (free) registration.

All players who register receive a FREE Bacon & Egg Roll fresh off the BBQ and a Crown Lager beer. Barefoot Bowls will then commence at 11am sharp, with three ‘celebrity’ judges including Jaymee Ong, Anita Kapoor and PJ Roberts overseeing the formalities.

The trophy presentation by the celebrity judges for the Barefoot Bowls winners will be announced at 3pm.

Also happening in the afternoon is a typically Aussie ‘sausage sizzle’ and the AFL ANZAC Day clash will be shown on Boomarang’s four big screens at around 5pm. Night-time will see top-line DJ Sean Lavan playing true-blue classics.

Boomarang also hopes to promote its Sunday event as a “hangover recovery session” for mates to get together after a hard Saturday night of partying. A steak and a sausage sandwich will be on the menu as the signature offer, together with Bloody Mary’s to drown out the pre-evening’s hangover!
