Claris Installation at The Grounds of Alexandria
SYDNEY | JANUARY 21 to MARCH 9

Get ready for a touch of elegance as Claris, the Chicest Mouse in Paris, takes over The Grounds of Alexandria! With her signature style, a sprinkle of joie de vivre, and delicious treats inspired by the works of renowned Australian illustrator Megan Hess, this fashionable adventure brings Claris' world to life.

Step into the pages of her story and stroll through the laneways filled with Parisian glamour. A grand pink Eiffel Tower sparkles at the centre–breathtaking by day and très magnifique by night, with thousands of twinkling lights. From carts of delectable donuts to chic merchandise inspired by Claris' iconic style, there's plenty to explore and indulge at every turn.

We love seeing your photos in our beautiful laneways!

HOW TO VISIT
By Day

To immerse yourself in Claris' Parisian world, make sure to dine at The Cafe, The Garden, or The Potting Shed first. The experience is exclusive to diners, so be sure to book a table and indulge before you explore! While walk-ins are welcome, booking ahead allows you to skip the queues, giving you more time to enjoy everything.

By Night

As the evening falls, our beautiful laneways come alive with sparkling lights and access is reserved for those who dine in The Potting Shed. Walk-ins are always welcome, but to make the most of your visit, we recommend booking ahead to skip the wait and spend more time eating and exploring.

ACCESS

To ensure a comfortable and memorable experience for our guests, our laneway installations are now exclusively reserved for those dining with us. During busy periods, proof of purchase (such as a receipt or bill) will be required for entry.

If you're not visiting The Cafe, The Potting Shed or The Garden, or attending an event, we kindly ask that you refrain from entering The Grounds. This allows us to keep these spaces focused on providing the best experience for our diners. Thank you for your understanding!
