2026 Arthur Mobsby Seafood Spectacular

Saturday 17 January 2026 | 10:30am to 8:30pm

Our signature summer fundraiser is back! Join us for a relaxed day of fresh local seafood, live entertainment and waterfront fun with family and friends, celebrating Arthur Mobsby’s contribution to our Club and boating community.

This year, the Spectacular will raise funds for Stage 2 of our pontoon upgrades around the Club and on the water, helping keep LSC a place we’re all proud of.

👉 Book your table and pay your $25 deposit

🦪 What to expect

• Fresh local seafood — prawns, oysters, fish and more
• A relaxed day on the waterfront lawn with shade, music and great company
• Live music by the MJayz (from 12 noon to 5pm)
• A family-friendly atmosphere (one of the happiest days of the year at LSC)
• Fundraising raffles and activities supporting Club projects

🦞 Book your table ( $25 deposit required)

To help us plan catering and seating, we’re asking members and guests to book a table and pay a $25 non-refundable deposit per table.

• Your $25 deposit becomes a voucher to use at the Bistro and Prawn Bar on the day
• It helps reduce wasted seafood, manage queues, and keep service running smoothly
• Tables are limited — please book early to avoid missing out

👉 Book your table and pay your $25 deposit

Change of plans?

If your plans change, please let us know by Wednesday 14 January 2026 and we’ll happily transfer your voucher to another visit to the Club.

MENU (coming soon)

Our cook is currently designing a fresh menu for the 2026 Spectacular.

In the meantime, here’s the 2025 Seafood Spectacular menu as an example from Straddie oysters and fresh prawns to crabs, calamari and child-friendly options.

Final dishes and pricing will be shared closer to the day once seafood prices are confirmed with suppliers.

Volunteer crew (we’d love your help)

To make the day a success, we’re looking for 10–15 volunteers to help for a few hours. Roles may include:

• Can bar support
• Prawn bar support
• Raffles
• Loading bar fridges
• Returning plates/cutlery to the bistro
• Putting up/taking down marquees
• Collecting glasses
• General tidy-up and bins

We’ll look after our volunteers with lunch, refreshments and a small bag of prawns to take home, plus a $25 Club voucher to use on another day.

To volunteer, email Club Manager Tracey Rore here with the role you’d be happy to do.
