What’s happening in Access land this week

Getaway: get a breath of fresh air at The Wensley

Enter to win a whopping three-part giveaway, valued at $5500. Head to one of the most luxe stays on Victoria’s Surf Coast, The Wensley, with room for a group of 10. You and your mates will be fed by a former Masterchef contestant, Harriet Tomlinson, at a private lunch, plus you’ll score a $1000 voucher to Carlotta & Gee’s range of bedding and sleepwear.

Studio preview: trial the classes at Upstate Elsternwick

It’s another iconic Upstate launch and Access members are first in the door. Get a sneak peek of the latest, largest site before it opens to the public. Your morning will include three mini-classes, treats from local businesses and perks like a free 30-day membership. The waitlist will open from 4pm to 6pm on April 10.

Free screening: be the first to see A24’s new flick, Warfare

Score a pass for you and a mate to attend the preview screening of Warfare, which viscerally depicts an infamous 2006 encounter during the Iraq War. You’ll follow a team of Navy Seals trapped inside a house as a battle rages around them, with a star-studded cast including Charles Melton and Noah Centineo.

Recipe of the week: Mark Tagnipez’s kokada salmon ceviche

We just hosted a group of Access members for a special dinner at Marmont, celebrating the 1o-year anniversary of founder Grant Smillie’s LA restaurant EP & LP. The head chefs, Louis Tikaram of EP & LP and Mark Tagnipez of Marmont, brought back classic dishes from their days working together in Tinseltown, like this fragrant, fresh ceviche. And now you can cook it at home.

We just launched the Access journal

Want to flick through the gallery from our latest event with Mecca? Or know where an Australian Ballet dancer hangs out in Sydney? Hit up our journal. Plus, get our tips on what to wear and what to shop at Access events, and menu previews.

What Access members have been up to

A few lucky members recently attended Mecca’s jazz night at Cutler. It was classy (as expected) with live jazz, a bespoke menu and Diptyque fragrance consultations.

Plus, we just gave away double passes to the Australian Ballet’s Carmen at the Regent Theatre. Access members watched powerful, athletic performances from some of the nation’s leading dancers.

“Love feeling like a VIP.”

– Rachel, Access member since 2022.
