Sydney Tea Festival
All the tea combos you can imagine will be on show at this inaugural festival, which also boasts workshops.
Overview
Perhaps the most comforting of all hot beverages, tea is always there for you when you are a clogged-up, sniffling mess. It is there for you when you are freezing cold, have lost feeling in your hands and need to defrost your insides.
Australia is the 13th highest tea-drinking nation in the world (the highest is Turkey, in case you were wondering) and on August 17, the beverage will be receiving the attention that it deserves in the Sydney Tea Festival. It's a whole day dedicated to tea.
The festival will be divided into two parts. The first is a free tea market, where you can sample and buy all the different combinations of tea you ever dreamed of. We're not just talking your average run-of-the-mill, pick-up-from-the-supermarket variety; we are talking the artisan stuff. Aisles upon aisles of it. The second part of the festival is for the hardcore tea connoisseurs among us. An array of tea workshops are on offer which will include educational talks, tea tastings and tea making sessions.
The tea workshop is free to enter, and will run from 9am – 4pm at Carriageworks. Tickets for tea workshops range from $15 – 35, and can be booked here.
