Mother’s Day High Tea & River Cruise

Treat Mum to a Mother’s Day celebration that offers something a little more special at Showtime Events Centre. Enjoy a beautifully presented high tea with family and loved ones before stepping aboard a scenic Melbourne River Cruises experience along the Yarra River.

As part of the experience, guests will depart from just outside Showtime Events Centre and cruise toward Flinders Street and back, taking in beautiful city views from the water along the way. With the option to dine indoors or outdoors, this is a memorable way to celebrate Mother’s Day by the river.
