Gelato Scoop, -14ºc at Enlighten Festival Canberra

Enlighten Festival

We’re The Coolest Thing At Enlighten Festival

No, really Canberra. That’s not confidence. That’s fact.

Every year, Enlighten lights up some of the capital’s most iconic national cultural institutions.

But while the buildings are glowing…
We're there, scooping our -14ºC gelato. And technically? That makes us cooler.

From 5:30pm til 11pm daily until 9th March, we’ve parked the Messina caravan smack bang in the centre of Canberra at Enlighten Festival. Think of it as your official pit stop between projections, photo ops and pretending you know what “architectural illumination” means.

We’re serving the scoops you already know and love from our Braddon and Kingston stores. Sorry no limited-edition light beam gelato.

Find us near the Enlighten Letters or search for us on the Enlighten interactive map here

So whether you’re there for the architecture , a date night, a family outing or just the snacks, consider this your reminder:

The lights are impressive but the gelato is technically cooler.
