Mildura Big Freeze 2026

We’ve come together as a team to support Motor Neurone Disease (MND) awareness because we recognise the devastating impact this condition has on individuals, families, and entire communities.

MND is a progressive neurological disease that affects the nerves controlling movement, gradually taking away a person’s ability to walk, talk, eat, and eventually breathe. There is currently no cure, which makes awareness, funding for research, and strong community support absolutely essential.

This cause is especially meaningful to us as we honour the legacy of Neale Daniher, who sadly passed away after his courageous battle with MND. Neale’s strength, dignity, and determination throughout his journey inspired an entire nation. Through his leadership of FightMND, he turned personal adversity into a movement that has raised hundreds of millions for research and continues to bring hope to families affected by this disease.

By taking part in this initiative, we are standing in solidarity with those living with MND and remembering the incredible example Neale set to “play on” no matter the challenge. His legacy reminds us that even in the face of something so difficult, compassion, unity, and action can create real change.

This team photo represents more than just participation, it represents respect, unity, and a shared commitment to continuing the fight he helped lead. Every conversation, every bit of awareness, and every effort raised in his honour helps move us closer to a future without MND.

Together, we stand for hope, for awareness, and for Neale’s legacy and for everyone still fighting this disease. 💙

Parmi Night Changes
Due to rising costs as of June 3rd, 2026, our Parmi Night prices will be going up and will only be a dine-in promotion.
Weekly special parmis can still be ordered on Parmi Nights as takeaways, but they will incur an extra cost.
We appreciate your understanding and continued support. Our team is committed to ensuring that your dining experience remains enjoyable. Join us in-house to enjoy your favorite Parmi specials each week!

During the month of June, we will be donating $2 from every parmi sold to FightMND, so come on in and enjoy a parmi and help us fight the beast that is MND.

Sunraysia, let's get behind this one.
Today, South Mildura and Merbein aren't just playing football and netball. They're coming together to raise awareness for MND and support those whose lives have been impacted by this devastating disease.
There'll be an Ice Bucket Challenge, MND merchandise, great food, plenty of community spirit and an opportunity to be part of something bigger than the game itself.
Every person who attends, every conversation started and every dollar raised helps keep the fight going.
So grab your family, bring your friends and head down to South Mildura today. Let's fill the grounds, support the clubs and show what our community can do when it rallies behind a cause that matters. 💙🧊
