Win a Luxe Foodie Sleepover for Newcastle Food Month at Crystalbrook Kingsley

In partnership with Newcastle Food Month, we’re giving one lucky reader the ultimate Newcastle escape, with Crystalbrook Kingsley at its heart and a city-wide April feast on the agenda.

Your April plans just found their main character energy.

Newcastle Food Month is back — and this is no ordinary staycation. One lucky reader will win a wildly indulgent, unapologetically generous luxury getaway worth over $3500.

Two nights at Crystalbrook Kingsley. Harbour views. Buffet breakfast and dinner for two. A BMW for the weekend. Food Month tickets of your choosing. A $500 shopping spree. Wine delivered to your room. A gourmet hamper waiting on arrival. Yes — it’s that good.

This isn’t just a sleepover. It’s a Newcastle takeover.

What’s Waiting For You

You’ll check into Crystalbrook Kingsley for two nights, complete with The Foodie Sleepover package and buffet breakfast daily and an indulgent dinner for two at Roundhouse.

From there, Newcastle Food Month takes over.

You’ll receive two tickets to a Newcastle Food Month Feature Event (up to $400 value) and four Plate Dates of your choice, meaning your April itinerary is entirely in your hands. Long lunches, special collaborations, limited-edition menus — you decide the flavour of your weekend.

Need transport? A BMW of your choice (thanks to Newcastle BMW) will be yours for two days (subject to availability), because why not lean all the way in?

And waiting alongside it all:

• A $500 Charlestown Square gift card
• A First Creek mixed dozen, ready for your stay
• A Pukara Estate gourmet hamper
• A $100 voucher for Earp Distilling Co.

Total prize value: Over $3500.

Redeemable between 1st to 30th April 2026.

The Weekend, Fully Realised

Wake to harbour light spilling across the skyline. Claim your breakfast and dinner at Roundhouse. Spend the afternoon chasing menus that exist for 30 days only. Take the long coastal drive back as the ocean turns silver, then end the night high above it all.

Newcastle doesn’t play small in April. Neither should you.
