Celebrity chef Matt Golinski will join us again this year, and will showcase his love of locally grown produce at various locations across the weekend.
From paddock to plate and plate to our tummy’s, there’s nothing better than the experience that fresh food can offer.
The Main Event on Saturday is sure to be a real highlight, as for the first time we combine the daytime market and festival atmosphere with the night-time celebrations in a one day extravaganza.... be sure not to miss it.
The first annual ‘Hot Wing Challenge’ will also be contested on Saturday, along with the announcement of the winners in the inaugural ‘Favourite Foodie Awards’.
