Nutella Festival

Overview

If you're a fan of Nutella, then you likely live by one rule: when it comes to the chocolate-hazelnut spread, you can never have enough. Of course, just how you interpret that idea is up to you. Maybe you slather your bread with it every morning for breakfast. Perhaps you always opt for whichever Nutella dessert is on any given menu. Or, you could head down the highway for a dedicated Nutella Festival.

Helensvale's NightQuarter is throwing the latter from 2–8pm on Saturday, September 15. We recommend arriving hungry. Entry costs $3 and you'll need to pay for whatever Nutella creations you'd like to eat or drink, but this fest is rather devoted to combining its favourite ingredient with, well, everything.

On the sweet side, there's Nutella doughnuts, gelato, ice cream cookie sandwiches, churros, mousse and fudge. From the usually savoury camp, there's Nutella pizza, toasties, calzone and sliders, too. Drinks-wise, there'll be Nutella milkshakes, shots and cocktails. There's more to eat and drink — but if you're wondering what else there could possibly be, just think of a dish and imagine adding Nutella to it.
