We talk about Wharf River Club a lot, but we’ve realised you might not all know exactly what it is!

On the first Sunday of every month, we bring free live music to the Ballina waterfront, creating a place for families, friends, locals and visitors to come together by the river. Each event also raises funds for a local charity—and so far, we’ve raised nearly $50,000 for organisations across our community.

Join us this Father’s Day, Sunday 6 September, from 2–5pm for live music from Pink Zinc, good food and drinks, and an afternoon supporting Northern Rivers Animal Services. They’ll also be joining us for an adoption day, so you can meet some of the beautiful dogs in their care 🐾

Free entry, family-friendly and everyone is welcome. See you by the river! 🫶

Time is flying — Wharf River Club is already back next Sunday! 🎶☀️

Bring Dad and the whole family down for a free Father’s Day afternoon by the river, with live music from Pink Zinc, cold drinks in the b**r garden and plenty of good food from Wharf.

This month, we’re supporting local charity NRAS. Together, River Club has raised almost $50,000 for our community so far — halfway to our $100,000 goal! Come along, enjoy the afternoon and help us keep that number climbing. 💛
