YOUR COMMUNITY. YOUR STORIES.
Aussie Park Barbies is an Australian food and travel series hosted by Phil and Denis. Through food, conversation and humour, we discover interesting people, explore local communities and celebrate the simple pleasure of getting outdoors.
We partner with councils to tell the stories of the people, places and experiences that make their communities unique.
The concept is simple. The possibilities are endless.

THE THREE-EPISODE MODEL
Together, we develop three entertaining, professionally produced episodes showcasing your community.
From local food producers and neighbourhoods to parks, community initiatives and fascinating people, we find the stories worth sharing.
Each series is developed collaboratively around your council's objectives.
LET'S CREATE SOMETHING TOGETHER
Council partnerships start from $7,500 for a three-episode series.
Every council and community is different. This is our starting point, with the final scope, creative direction and deliverables developed together.
Whether you have a particular project in mind or simply want to explore the possibilities, we'd love to have a conversation.
Let's discover what we could create in your community.

PROVEN PARTNERSHIPS
We've worked with two South Australian councils on projects with very different objectives.
Our Campbelltown Food Trail collaboration celebrated local producers and food businesses, while our work with the City of Port Adelaide Enfield's placemaking team explored public spaces, local experiences and community connections.
These projects demonstrate how the same Aussie Park Barbies format can be adapted to tell very different stories.
Case Studies Below
PAE COUNCIL
Working with the City of Port Adelaide Enfield's placemaking team, we created a three-episode series celebrating the region's public spaces, local businesses and community. With more than 100 free public barbecues across the council area, we explored a variety of locations, met interesting locals, featured local business Wild Water Jetskis and even welcomed the Mayor for a conversation about the area. The collaboration highlighted the simple pleasures of getting outdoors, discovering local places and bringing people together, while encouraging residents to make greater use of the wonderful facilities right on their doorstep.
CAMPBELLTOWN FOOD TRAIL
Working with Campbelltown City Council, we created a two-episode series celebrating the region's vibrant local food scene. We visited producers and food businesses along the Campbelltown Food Trail, meeting the passionate people behind them and discovering their stories, products and traditions. Bringing it all together through our signature park barbie format, the collaboration showcased the wonderful diversity of food, culture and experiences available in the area, encouraging locals and visitors alike to explore the region and support its food businesses.
