All times are Queensland time. These are the Christmas dates confirmed for this guide, not a new schedule for every day in December. Check our stores or call the team for other dates and any subsequent updates.

Retail shopping and pack collection are different

The $450 Tasman Pack and $700 Mixed Pack are collected from 12 Barnett Place, Molendinar QLD 4214. Their window is 10am–2pm on Christmas Eve. They are not collected from the two retail stores, and extended store trading does not change the pack terms.

If your plan includes a pack and additional retail items, treat them as separate purchases. Confirm current stock rather than assuming everything pictured online will be on the counter when you arrive. A store being open is not a stock guarantee or a guarantee that every preparation service is available at every hour.

Plan the household schedule around the right time

Choose who is shopping, who is collecting and who can receive the seafood into refrigeration. Keep those tasks on one shared calendar, with the address next to each. If a relative is visiting from NSW, explicitly tell them the Queensland collection time instead of just writing “10am”.

For a Christmas Day meal, organise the shopping before the stores close on 24 December. Do not make your menu depend on a Christmas morning purchase from either store. For Boxing Day, the 9am opening is the relevant retail start, but it does not create an additional Christmas pack pickup date.
