Here's a quick update for the 2023 Australia Day Party with all the details of the biggest event of the year.
Firstly, it's an honour and pleasure to organise the get-together with the guys at Dos Dingos Brewery.
They are well organised, they have a great place and most importantly they are top blokes.
Dos Dingos Brewery
Calle de la Cañada, 7
28860 Paracuellos de Jarama (Madrid)
We always try to organise the party on the actual date but it makes sense this year to move it to the following weekend.
Saturday 28 January at 1:30 p.m.
Free entry
It wouldn't be Australia Day without a BBQ so they guys at Dos Dingos will fire theirs up with a lamb chop and sausage sizzle. They are also going to launch their new Aussie beer.
It's going to be a family-friendly event so kids are more than welcome. It's open to family, friends and everyone else too.
We have organised typical Australian activities including backyard cricket, king of the pack footy, thong throwing, pin the tail on the dingo, karaoke and more, with loads of prizes. We will also play Triple J's Hottest 100.
Getting there by car is not too hard but it's a bit difficult by public transport so there will be a transfer service to and from Barajas Metro Station on Line 8 for those who don't want to drive.
Stay tuned for further updates.

We are heading back to Dos Dingos Bar and Brewery to watch the Socceroos play Argentina in the World Cup Last 16 at Dos Dingos.
Dos Dingos' Mati and Nico did a great job for the group stage games and we can think of no better place to see the big clash.
Dos Dingos Cerveza Independiente, Calle de la Cañada 7, 28860 Paracuellos de Jarama (Madrid)
Paracuellos de Jarama is a bit of a hike, on the other side of Madrid Barajas Airport, but the effort is well worth it.
Dos Dingos have a special beer and burger pre-order with discount. Very tempting as both beers and burgers are excellent.
