Overview
On Sunday, June 9, things are getting hot in Newstead. Tongue-tinglingly hot. Face-meltingly hot. Homer Simpson running, screaming and waving his hands around hot. That's what happens when you spice up your weekend with a chilli festival, after all.
Adding some zest to Brisbane, Newstead's Waterfront Park is hosting the Briz-Chilli Fest from 11am. There'll be plenty of stalls offering plenty of chilli, and not just in food form. Of course, there'll be enough edible hot hot heat to help you turn several different shades, but that's just part of the chilli fun. Chilli beer and chilli cocktails will all be on offer, as will a chilli fancy dress competition. Basically, you'll be saying the word chilli so much that it no longer means anything.
Early bird tickets are on sale now for $5, and the full lineup of activities also includes six chilli-eating contests for those with cast-iron stomachs, plus live music and workshops — with the event boasting spice on multiple fronts.
Our tip, and one we think you'll need: remember that milk is a chilli-lover's best friend.
