    Join us at the Hotel Savoy Berlin for a gourmet buffet dinner and Tasmanian wine tasting with a wonderful selection of wines perfect for a garden party!

    The Hotel Savoy Berlin
    Opened in 1929, the Hotel Savoy Berlin lies just a few minutes’ walk from the busy Kurfürstendamm, Berlin’s famous elegant promenade. Celebrities like Maria Callas, Romy Schneider, Greta Garbo, Helmut Newton and the famous German writer Thomas Mann were regular guests. They all valued the hotel’s atmosphere and unobtrusive service. Today the Savoy is still synonymous with style, discretion and hospitality.

    The event will begin with a short wine presentation followed by a ten course buffet dinner.

    Autumn/Winter 2010 event schedule below

    We are organising two extravagant events later in 2010 with tickets for over 120 people at both venues for two great nights of Australian live entertainment, shows, wines and gourmet dinners.

    Both events will be held in the respective hotels’ ballrooms and major sponsors are already confirmed as the Australian Embassy, the Western Australian Government Office in London and Singapore Airlines.

    The Prague event is nearly sold out and for Berlin, tickets will cost EUR 75 per person (EUR 80 for non-members) or we are selling sponsored corporate tables for EUR 900 at each event (eight seats per table). Club members can book private tables for eight for EUR 600. You can book with us now if you would like to make sure you get a reservation.

    Berlin live entertainment and aboriginal show
    Worldfly (www.worldfly.com.au) to be confirmed – Worldfly’s first single ‘someone special’ has already won them an Australian Songwriter of the Year award (ASA) and their debut album, ‘it’s too late for turning back’, was voted one of ABC DIG radio’s favourite albums for 2009.

    There will be a live band and cultural Australian entertainment with a four course dinner and three complementing wines per course so including aperitif and dessert wines, we will be looking at about 18 different and diverse wines to taste from across Australia. I think this will be a black tie / dinner suit event as we are expecting the Consul General of Western Australia and the respective Australian Ambassadors to attend the events.

    Our annual Magnificent Seven Shiraz event at the Hilton Berlin Hotel was well attended and the evening was a great success. The showcased Shiraz wines were very well received and after a vote at the end of the evening, the Hundred Tree Hill Shiraz 2006 was rated best value for money Shiraz in the selection. Thanks to the Hilton food and beverage team and the excellent staff at the Mark Brandenburg Restaurant!
