Tomato Festival 2018
A two-day festival dedicated to the best tomatoes in town.
Overview
For the fifth consecutive year, the Royal Botanic Garden will be hosting its annual Tomato Festival. As well as eating tomatoes — obviously — it'll feature an abundance of cooking demonstrations, talks, tips and tricks that are guaranteed to inspire your creations in the kitchen.
If cooking doesn't suit your weekend relaxing plans, take part in the Longest Tomato Lunch, a dining table that stretches 70 metres long on the Garden's foreshore lawn. No surprising for guessing the main ingredient on the menu — yes, you'll indulge in an Italian and tomato-inspired meal, with dishes such as fresh tomato pasta salad and mixed tomato carpaccio.
Other highlights include a tomato degustation brunch, a pop-up bar and cafe by Relish, a produce market filled with some of Sydney's highest quality produce, and taste testing a-plenty. Tomatoes will be judged on their colour and smell, and you'll be able to witness some of the best in show, from the best local and homegrown farmers. Just don't wear white.
