The Whiddon Jacaranda Afternoon Tea is one of the most highly anticipated social occasions during the Grafton Jacaranda Festival every year.
Guests are cordially invited to step into a world of elegance, and they will also have the opportunity to meet the 2024 Jacaranda Royal Party.
This year, the guest speaker will be Jo Powell, a local business owner and member of the Matildas Alumni, who is also the 2024 Grafton Jacaranda Festival Guest of Honour.
The event will also include raffles, lucky door prizes, and a tombola.
The Whiddon Afternoon Tea will be held at the Clarence River Jockey Club (CRJC) at 1:30pm on Monday, October 28.
All past Jacaranda Royal Party members are encouraged to attend and will be acknowledged during the event.
Tickets cost $25 per person and can be purchased online through INTIX or in person at Harveys Jewellers, located at 54 Prince Street, Grafton.
