The Peninsula Picnic 2023

Overview

It's time to bust out those picnic rugs because The Peninsula Picnic is returning for its annual celebration of food, wine and good times.

Taking over the Mornington Racecourse on Saturday, March 25, this year's lineup promises to be as impressive as ever, showcasing the region's finest epicurean delights alongside a jam-packed musical offering.

Showing off their goods on the day — and ensuring bellies and wine glasses stay happily full — will be a hand-picked selection of local producers and eateries. Expect offerings from renowned wineries like Paringa Estate, Montalto and T'Gallant, and dining hotspots like Red Gum BBQ, DOC Mornington and Lorida Greek Taverna. There'll also be boozy delights from the likes of Bass & Flinders Distillery, St Andrews Beach Brewery and Jimmy Rum, with market stalls and tastings galore.

Topping it all off, The Peninsula Picnic has landed a cracking lineup of live tunes, headlined by none other than The Temper Trap. The indie-rockers will be joined by award-winning music star Josh Pyke, Mackay singer-songwriter legend Tia Gostelow, all-female mariachi band Queen of Hearts and emerging local songwriter Tahls.
