Why not surprise that special someone with a gift that will last a lifetime – plant a tree in their honor! Session time and places limited on 14 May so get in quick to secure a spot here.

On the adventurous side

If there is a need for speed, look no further than Luddenham Raceway on Mother’s Day. A 10-minute session on the picturesque 600-metre Pro-Circuit track offers drivers sweeping rural views and fast corners. 

Unleash her inner lumberjack (yes, it’s a thing) at Throw Axe. Described as “darts on steroids” it’s taking Penrith by storm, and for good reason!

If skydiving is on the bucket list, surprise them with an indoor skydiving experience. At iFLY Indoor Skydivingthere’s no planes, no heights and no jumping involved - just a great big wind tunnel and a whole lot of fun. Gift vouchers are available for these activities and bookings are essential.

Margo Lewers A House Full Of Paintings will show Penrith Regional Gallery and Lewers Bequest, with the final viewing on 14 May. Why not explore the exhibition of paintings, collages, mosaics, fabric hangings, and plexiglass sculptures, once again set amidst the beauty of her home on the river before enjoying brunch at Café Lewers.

Thinking of a sip and sit-down activity? Pinot and Picasso will host a special session at Panthers so rope in a group and book early! 

You can also check out the Creative Fringe’s special Mother’s Day Candle Making and Diffuser Workshop.

Dining delights 

If your special someone loves to eat out, a gift voucher for one of Penrith’s many, many amazing restaurants and cafés could be just the ticket.

If you want a super surprise, the classic Nepean Belle Paddlewheeler will host a special Mothers Day lunch cruise or for something on land, try the delightful high tea at Astina Suites

Have a closer look at all the amazing restaurants and cafes in and around Penrith, and what they might be offering here and check out other gift ideas that will bring a smile to your mum’s face on Mother’s Day.
