Norfolk Island Fish Fry Dinner: Live Music & Island Dancing

Fresh fish cooked the local way, with live island singers and dancers through the meal.

Baunti Island Fish Fry is a self-drive dinner experience on Norfolk Island where you eat fresh local fish prepared the island way, accompanied by seasonal home-grown produce, with live music and island dancing performances throughout the evening. The event runs three hours at a scenic outdoor location. If weather turns, it moves to an alternate venue. You must visit the Baunti Office on Taylors Road in Burnt Pine to confirm your booking and exchange your voucher for tickets before the event.

The experience

You drive yourself to a scenic outdoor location on Norfolk Island for an evening built around fresh local fish cooked the island way. The meal includes generous seasonal dishes made from home-grown produce where possible: the kitchen works from paddock to plate. A singer and island dancers perform throughout, setting a relaxed tone for the three hours you spend there. A cash bar is available if you want to add drinks. The operator does not include them in the ticket price.

The event is held outdoors, but if inclement weather arrives, the whole thing moves to an alternate indoor venue so the evening stays on. This dinner works well as a pre-show meal before heading to 1856. The Untold Story if that is on your Norfolk Island itinerary. Children from age four are welcome. You'll need to stop by the Baunti Office on Taylors Road in Burnt Pine ahead of time to confirm your booking and pick up your tickets in exchange for your voucher: that step happens before the event itself, not on the night.
