Every girls weekend looks a little different...
Some start with sunrise swims and end with cocktails that stretch well past midnight. Some are built around long lunches and dinner reservations. Some need an escarpment trail and a sauna to feel complete 😉
Wollongong has a version for all of it - and the best part is you don`t have to choose just one. Tag your girls and start planning 🙌🥂

Wollongong after dark has a personality all of its own. Whether you`re after cocktails on a rooftop, a dimly lit whisky bar, live music or somewhere to keep the night going until 3am, the city`s nightlife scene has a venue for every kind of evening.
Save this and sort the rest later 🌙
