Overview
The bond between Italians and their food and wine is a sacred one, and with the Sydney Italian Wine and Food Festival, Sydneysiders are invited to partake in this holy combination.
Get ready to abandon any carbless aspirations and embrace gloriously hearty nosh as this festival returns to Sydney for the fourth time. With it comes the promise of produce that will dance upon your tastebuds in a merry cheese and basil-infused tarantella.
Setting up shop for the day in Sydney Town Hall, some of the best names in Italian cuisine have banded together to bring us the good stuff, with cooking demonstrations and talks going on all day. Want to see mozzarella being freshly made? You can! Want to watch fettuccine be churned out from scratch? Go for it!
As well as watching the creation of Italian food, you can also, of course, eat some. There'll be fresh produce to purchase, with everything from gelato to coffee, pasta to pizza on offer. Pair that with 200 of Italy's finest wines and you've got yourself a damn good feast. Not to mention a casual negroni stand featuring Vasco's Max Greco.
Once you've eaten yourself silly, you can loll around in a semi-food coma in the wine garden while enjoying some live Italian jazz. Once the day transitions into night, expect a full DJ set of Italian vinyl and European tracks until 9pm.
