Canberra, May 29, 2023 – After a very successful year, with the session mostly sold out, the Raclette Igloo experience returns to Canberra in an upgraded, super immersive experience. Prepare to gather your friends and family in your private igloo, feast on raclette cheese, sip on mulled wine, and enjoy your very own fire pit with marshmallows. For two weeks, the Raclette Igloo Experience will take over parks place lawn in the heart of the national triangle, offering you the chance to enjoy a traditional French dish while surrounded by a cozy, mountain-style atmosphere.

 

 

SAY CHEESE TO AN UNFORGETTABLE FRENCH CULINARY EXPERIENCE

 

 

The place will have 14 igloos, each named after a famous French ski resort. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by French-speaking staff who will enhance the culture experience. Your “raclette guide”, will take you through how to eat raclette and will immerse you into this unique dining experience.


As you walk through the entrance, snow falling gently around you, you'll be greeted with the spiced warmth of mulled wine, surrounded by pine trees and twinkling fairy lights that set the stage for a magical moment. The premium experience continues in our different igloos, where you can reunite with your loved ones and indulge in one of the most popular dishes from France – Raclette.


Vincent Hernandez – event director says - "Raclette isn't just a meal – it's a French tradition of sharing, laughter, and indulgence. Some of my best memories are gathering around the Raclette grill with my friends and family, savouring the delicious flavours and enjoying each other's company. At the Igloo Raclette experience, we bring that same warmth and joy to Canberra, allowing people to create unforgettable memories together while indulging in lots of cheese."


You can book an igloo for a party of 6 or 8 people. 

 

 

2 TONES OF CHEESE DELIVERED FROM FRANCE STRAIGHT TO CANBERRA FOR YOU TO EXPERIENCE THE AUTHENTIC FLAVOURS OF THE RACLETTE 
 


Raclette is coming straight from the Alps. Indulge in this cheese-based winter dish, which is popular in the Alpine regions of France and is, in fact, the best-selling cheese in France. This hearty meal is typically enjoyed during the colder months, when the warmth and comfort of melted cheese are most welcome. Brace yourself, Canberra – it will keep you warm this winter.


On the table, there will be up to 2 kilos of raclette cheese and a selection of four exquisite, cured meats. But that's not all! We're also serving boiled potatoes, pickled onions, and cornichons, all served family-style.


To complement your meal, we serve it with a glass of mulled wine, a match made in heaven to fully enjoy a raclette dish. Inside your igloo, enjoy your own mini bar with a selection of French wines (for an additional cost) that pair perfectly with the dish. If you prefer something lighter, you will find a selection of soft drinks, including still and sparkling water, and sodas.
