Prawn or oyster anyone? Another year of successful Aussie BBQ’s

The Aussie BBQ isn’t just about the excellent F&B and Aussie rock playlist – it’s about strengthening relationships, sharing stories, and kicking off the year with the people we value in our network.

In February, PKF Sydney and Newcastle held the much-anticipated annual Aussie BBQ events, bringing together our valued network of referrers and staff for an evening of great food, exceptional company, and meaningful connections.

The Sydney event kicked things off at The Porter, in the heart of our Sydney office building at 1 O’Connell Street. Guests enjoyed classic Australian barbecue fare, refreshing drinks, and plenty of lively conversation. The atmosphere struck the perfect balance between relaxed and professional, giving guests the chance to catch up, exchange ideas, and strengthen relationships.

This was my first Sydney Aussie BBQ, and I was absolutely blown away by the energy, hospitality, and camaraderie on the night. The event truly showcased the strength of the PKF network and the genuine connections that make this community so special, said Lana Weldon, COO of PKF Australia.

The following week, Newcastle took the celebration to new heights (literally) at the QT rooftop bar, overlooking Newcastle Harbour. With a stunning backdrop, top-notch hospitality, and a vibrant atmosphere, the evening was a resounding success. Guests enjoyed a relaxed setting to reconnect with familiar faces and forge new professional relationships.

Both events reinforced the importance of collaboration and community within the PKF network. They also served as a fantastic way to kick off the new calendar year, setting the stage for another year of shared success.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us – we look forward to keeping this tradition alive and seeing you all again next year!
