We welcome you to the Easter special of Picnic Social, and an exclusive VIP party with some of Picnic's all time favs. Locking it in at Barangaroo House's Smoke, we are treating you to drinks from Melbourne's Romeo Lane, free entry and and a smooth sailing boat ride over Sydney Harbour.
We are very lucky to have Melbourne's finest selectors Wax'o Paradiso joined by local Sydney dancefloor commanders Ben Fester, Grand Jete and Caravan.
Carla Uriarte is our talented artist in residence for the night and will be showcasing her unique style for us throughout the night.
Meet our lineup!

With their record collections combined, there's no gig Wax'o Paradiso's Simon TK and Edd Fisher can't crush. A couple of Melbourne gents with a love of everything from disco, house and techno to krautrock, balearic and psychedelia, their united d-floor power has brought smiles to zillions. Their own series of parties with untouchably good concepts like Stunnings Warehouse, Mortal Wombat and Mercury In Gatorade give you a sense of the level of fun you can expect from a Wax'o Paradiso experience, and it's no different whether they're playing in their own backyard or in clubs around the world. Whack on the Akubra, wedge a tin into your stubby cooler and start tapping those boots.

Ben Fester is a national treasure. His face probably belongs on the $50 note, that’s how good a DJ he is. His range feels infinite; he can stitch together dub and disco, house and jungle, UKG and techno, all in the one set with the approach that they’re all just different tastes on the one tongue. As part of the Heavenly crew he’s hosted some of the finest parties Sydney’s ever seen. As a selector he’s been trusted to support masters like Ben UFO, Moodymann, Floating Points and Omar-S, and he’s always in danger of outclassing the headline act. On the radio he’s brought joy and musical education to zillions on FBi with Kato via their long-running Thursday Sunset residency. And he’s just an absolute bloody legend who’s made Sydney a better place to dance and hang out for the past decade.

Caravan, also known locally as Paul Jextra, has been a commander of Sydney dance floors for over 12 years, and has only grown as a DJ, producer and party starter. He oscillates between studios, acoustics labs and DJ booths. Over the years he has developed a taste for off-kilter leftfield dance music and quirky Balearica, with a focus on the late 70s to early 90s.
His taste spans continents, touching on island disco to South African and you can expect a set to match his varying taste. It’ll have you moving in no time. His releases under Caravan have caught the eye of tastemakers over the world, and has solidified his reputation as a true all rounder.
Partnering with Caravan, we have Grand Jeté, who transcends the role of a DJ and producer to an energy force. Known as the DJ who can always get people up and out of their seats, Grand Jete indulges his dancers to upbeat booty movers, and downright heaters. He cut his teeth in venues around Sydney such as Home, Goodog, The Civic Underground and Club 77 just to name a few. Since then, Grand Jete has hopped around parties from Picnic, Sash, Heavenly and Slowblow.
