Cemetery To Host Dinner Featuring Paella, Wine And Death

YOU ARE INVITED … to the most unusual dinner you have ever attended where the conversation is about death.

YOU ARE INVITED … to the most unusual dinner you have ever attended where the conversation is about death. Be part of the most profound conversation that Australia is not having. There’s a lot to say about death. For instance, despite huge advances in medical technology the mortality rate remains at 100%. Yes, we are all going to die. So let’s talk about it.

The theme this time is on ‘end-of-life matters’. A dynamic and entertaining panel of experts in the ‘end-of-life’ field will start the conversation while you sit back enshrouded by the ambience of the historic West Terrace Cemetery, enjoying drinks and dinner. You will have a chance to ask questions and contribute to the conversation.

Dinner will be served by Taste of Spain offering delicious paella that is mouth-watering to eat and visually stunning to watch.

For a small charge, be part of the optional award-winning Night Tour which will begin after sunset, when darkness falls across West Terrace Cemetery. With only the soft glow of your lantern to light the way, and the eerie shadows of the monuments looming at every step, this unique guided sound and light experience takes you on an intriguing journey through good and evil, passion and reason, and the vices and virtues that are part of the human condition. As you explore the cemetery you will meet a host of dubious individuals, larrikins, eccentrics and mysterious figures. Their stories are so baffling, so bizarre and so callous that they will resonate in your mind long after the lanterns dim at the end of the night.

Tickets: $55 per person (or $75 including the tour) and are available here: http://www.aca.sa.gov.au/NewsEvents/ArtMID/438/ArticleID/51/Death-Over-Dinner-end-of-life-edition
