Gold Coast Food and Wine Festival 2016
Food, glorious food.
Overview
Hungry? Thirsty? Hankering for a barbecued feast, delectable dessert, tasty tipple or array of craft beverages? Of course you are — and on Friday and Saturday evenings from June 3 to 25, Queensland's newest food and wine festival has all of your cravings covered.
That'd be the Gold Coast Food and Wine Festival, the first such event to bring gastronomical delights to the glitter strip. The theatre and the art of food is the inaugural event's focus, which means eating and drinking isn't the only thing on the menu. You'll also find performances and all-round sensory experiences alongside meals, masterclasses and more offerings than your stomach can handle.
Indeed, whether making gourmet caramel apples, decorating cookies, mixing cocktails or learning sustainable fish cooking methods gets your tastebuds tingling — or a progressive degustation of signature dishes from the Gold Coast's emerging chefs, perhaps — you'll find it here. Plus, the entire festival is a foodie treasure hunt, with halls, alleys and back streets overflowing with things to devour.
