2011 will be bigger and better.

This will be the biggest ever.If you think last year was big,then be prepared to be absolutely blown away. Not only is the All-You-Can-Eat buffett back but next year you can add Seafood and deserts to the buffett. For entertainment not only do we have 3 of Australia’s leading comedians but for you to dance the night away,we have signed the biggest cover band not only in Australia but the world so stay tuned.

Headlining Acts include comedians Jackie Loeb, Steve Philps,  Julia Wilson and Musical Talent, the one and only Bjorn Again!

Described as Gobsmackingly Excellent and Completely in your face funny by publications across the galaxy, Jackie has maintained her reputation as one of today’s most hilarious and gifted stand-up comedians while simultaneously distinguishing herself as a versatile actor, vocalist, musician, voice over artist and writer.

2010 has already been a huge and busy year for Jackie. With regular television appearances on The Nine Network’s 20-1, The Today Show – Weekend Edition and The Ten Network’s Good News Week.

Jackie’s solo comedy show Jackie Loeb Sings the Worst Songs Ever Written played to rave reviews and sold out at this years Sydney Comedy Festival. Jackie will embark on a national tour of the show in 2011. Jackie was subsequently invited to appear as a regular panellist on Foxtel’s The Playlist. Jackie also delighted TV audiences with a memorable guest spot on the popular ABC TV program Spicks and Specks.

Björn Again are the world’s Number One ABBA show and one of the most popular and most successful international entertainment acts touring the world today. This year they celebrate their 21st year, an incredible achievement for any music act.

Björn Again have performed over 5000 shows in over 70 countries, and have played at just about every major venue and event possible, worldwide. They are the only ABBA show endorsed by ABBA, and their fans range from Dave Grohl, Tom Jones and David Beckham, to Shane Warne, Russell Crowe, The Spice Girls and Mr Bean.

Björn Again were established in Melbourne in 1988 and their career highlights over the 21 years are many: sellout concerts at venues like The Sydney Opera House, The Royal Albert Hall and Wembley, rock festivals such as Glastonbury, Reading and Roskilde, and at events like the IPL cricket, The Monaco Grand Prix, The Hong Kong Handover, the MTV Music Awards in Sweden and countless charity events. Amazingly and almost unbelievably, the band has played ʻMoney Money Moneyʼ to Bill Gates, ʻTake A Chance On Meʼ to Tom Jones, ʻRing Ringʼ to Russell Crowe, ʻRock Meʼ to Metallica, ʻHastamananaʼ to Kurt Cobain, ʻSOSʼ to ʻMr Beanʼ (Rowan Atkinson), ʻHoney Honeyʼ to Vladimir Putin in Russia, ʻThe Winner Takes It Allʼ to David Beckham, and ʻDancing Queenʼ to Prince Charles and royals Andrew and Fergie.

The key to Björn Again’s success is that it delivers the highest quality ABBA show, with all the authentic costumes and makeup, high production values, staging and lighting effects, but adds a cheeky dose of parody, satire and on-stage theatrics that all combines to create the ultimate live entertainment experience. This almost always results in a hysterical audience response, the media searching for superlatives and the contemporary music industry dumbfounded.

The Björn Again concept in many ways is unique, and its career and global success a phenomenon.

This convent school girl, bouncer, accountant, stand-up comedian, whose humour refuses to be pigeonholed and personality can’t be ignored would rather live her life with bruises and scars instead of being too scared to do anything!

Whether it’s being bitten by a lion, stalked by a hippo, getting burnt by a burning hot gun cartridge, or being accosted by an armed hold up convict, Julia has aquired plenty of scars, and certainly isn’t afraid to share them with you!

Julia doesn’t just take to the stage, she owns it. Her unique style of storytelling is delivered with such honesty and at a blisteringly energising pace that a shirt full of sore ribs is guaranteed!
