Absolutely – and that’s the point.
Father’s Day officially falls on Sunday 6 September 2026, but one day was never going to be enough for a legend.
Celebrate early with us on Saturday 5 September, or join us for the main event on Father’s Day Sunday.
Either way, bring your people. Come hungry. And Feed the Legend.
