Melbourne Dumpling Festival 2019
Featuring over 50 types of dumplings, free bubble tea and a pop-up wine bar.
Overview
That most wonderful of foodstuffs is getting two nights to call its own, as the Melbourne Dumpling Festival returns for another year. Taking over the 206 Bourke Street development, this dumpling dine-in will feature dumps from some of Melbourne's best Chinese chefs, along with booze and other dumpling-related festivities.
It all kicks off at 5pm on Friday, March 15 and Saturday, March 16 – meaning you'll have all Sunday to lounge around in a food coma. On the ground floor, more than 50 varieties of dumplings will be on offer across the weekend from Tim Ho Wan, China Red, China Chilli, House of Delight and Dragon Boat. And when you buy some, you'll score a free bubble tea or wine from the Riot Wine Co. pop-up laneway bar. Plus, there will be a silent disco, live music and a ball pit filled with prizes and the chance to win free dumplings for a year.
But you'll want to also book yourself in for a dumpling and wine pairing 'experience' up on level one. For just $10, you'll be treated to five dumplings (one from each of the vendors) and three tastes of wine. Not bad. There'll be five sittings each night, and you can book in here.
