Become your Mum’s favourite child this Mother’s Day by giving her a day to remember in Parramatta.
Whether it’s a high tea, a nice dinner or even a 5km run, there’s plenty of ways to celebrate your mum in the city this Sunday.
Southeast Asian feast
What better way to show your Mum you care than by taking her out to enjoy a delicious Southeast Asian feast at one of Parramatta’s most popular restaurants – LILYMU.
Whether it’s a long family lunch or an intimate dinner, mum’s everywhere are sure to enjoy the mouth-watering A La Carte menu and enjoy a selection of Mother’s Day specials created by Executive Chef Brendan Fong.

Mother’s Day Classic
Although the Mother’s Day Classic may be an unconventional way to spend the day, your mum is sure to appreciate you standing up against a disease that affects so many women. Participation in the event goes towards helping fund life-saving research and support the one in seven women who are diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime.
All you have to do is register online for the Parramatta Park event, wear your best pink clothes and get jogging. Not a fan of running? Don’t worry, the Mother’s Day Classic offers different options, including a 5km or 10km walk.
High tea
What’s better than a high tea? A high tea buffet! This Sunday, Novotel Sydney Parramatta will be treating mums to a delicious celebration.
The menu is sure to delight everyone in the family, with a range of delicious sandwiches, bagels, wraps, scones and an irresistible dessert selection that includes lemon meringue tarts, assorted macarons, panna cotta, and assorted petit fours.
Bringing the kids? Children will be able to sink their teeth into a special menu that includes mini Hawaiian pizzas, chicken nuggets, fairy bread and a make-your-own pancake station with a Nutella fountain.
Picnic in the park
If you’re looking to enjoy the great outdoors this Mother’s Day, you can’t past a day in the sun in the beautiful Parramatta Park.
Make sure to swing by Parramatta Square before hand and pick up some tasty snacks like croissants from Threefold Pastry or delicious sandwiches from Harvey’s Hot Sandwiches. For bonus points, grab your Mum a bouquet of fresh florals from the Royal Rose to show her just how she special she is.
