The Pig & Whistle

25/08/2026

We are super excited to announce this!

The Pig & Whistle are throwing a proper, full-scale British invasion. We are completely transforming every square inch of The Pig & Whistle, from the theatre and the restaurant, down to the Cellar Bar, and spilling right out onto the surrounding lawns. Expect wall-to-wall classic British decor and a brilliant atmosphere that would make the Queen's Guard crack a smile.

We want the word to get across to everyone! So please share this post and start grabbing your tickets!

From tasting bars, to market stalls, British food, classic cars, circus acts, live music, old time dancing and a British BULL DOG display, we promise you a fantastic day of British culture!

We are still looking for food, drink, retail, presenters and other British themed businesses to come on board!
think....Gin tasting, local cheese, vintage English stalls, classic British vinyl, car clubs, darts clubs, chutney, British pop culture and more.
You can reach out by emailing us at [email protected]

Charlie Owen

We’re delighted to welcome one of Australia’s finest guitarists, Charlie Owen, to the Pig & Whistle.

Few musicians have left such a lasting mark on Australia’s musical landscape. From his influential work with Tex, Don & Charlie, Beasts of Bourbon, and The New Christs, to collaborations with Paul Kelly, Louis Tillett, Tendrils, and Working Class Ringos, Charlie has built a career defined by extraordinary musicianship and fearless creativity.

Fresh from the release of his brand-new LP, Searching for Charlie Owen, Charlie brings this next chapter to the stage in an intimate show that celebrates decades of remarkable music while continuing to explore new ground.

We’re especially excited to welcome Charlie back to his local, joined by special guest and long-time friend Dan Brodie, for what promises to be a memorable evening.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to experience one of Australia’s most respected musicians in the warm surrounds of the Pig & Whistle.

Multi-Award-winning singer-songwriters Felicity Urquhart & Josh Cunningham are hitting the road again to celebrate their chart-topping, third studio album, Everything Around You.

Spending multiple weeks at #1 on the ARIA Australian Country Album Chart, Everything Around You is an uplifting collection of songs about hope, love and resilience, offering light in the midst of life’s challenges.

With a blend of folk, country, blues, and roots unmistakably their own, Felicity and Josh pair world-class musicianship with down-to-earth performances that feel warm and inviting like a conversation with old friends.

Featuring new songs from Everything Around You, Felicity and Josh are charting a course towards connection, resilience and joy. An album born from their reflections on the wonder and the struggle of everything around us, these new songs are an appeal to hold onto the hope we have, and to reach out for the hope we lack.

Audiences can expect standout tracks from the album including “Go North Go South”, “Joy Roller” and “New Frontier”, along with fan favourites like “Size Up” from their previous award-winning albums and other musical collaborations (Josh as a member of The Waifs, and Felicity as a solo Country artist).

This ARIA-nominated, three-time Golden Guitar winning duo are a must-see in 2026. Book now to join Felicity & Josh for an uplifting and unforgettable live performance!
