The highly anticipated Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival graces our shores every year, and it’s no wonder it’s every foodie’s dream: this is South East Queensland’s biggest celebration of food and wine on the waterfront. For three massive days, tuck into epic eats and equally delicious bevvies to pair.
Popping up on the foreshore from Friday, August 22 until Sunday, August 24, this feastival for the foodies will not only please your palate — you’ll also be treated to ocean views and a spectacular sunset over the water. Tickets are on sale now.
This year’s lineup is the biggest yet for MBFWF, with more unique dining experiences, pop-up bars, live entertainment, celebrity chefs, local food vendors, fireworks, masterclasses and market stalls than ever before.
General admission tickets will give you access to six festival areas, whether it be finding your next favourite cocktail — like chilli margs, mojitos, or something more exotic — at The Springs Bar, or meandering around The Marketplace, browsing a selection of locally made goodies.
Take your foodie experience to the next level at The Kitchen as you’re taken on a culinary journey led by celebrity chefs such as Julie Goodwin, Miguel Maestre, Alastair McLeod, as well as Mike Reid and 4 Ingredient’s Kim McCosker and Dominique Rizzo.
Wine and music lovers will be in their element in the The Cellar Door area, where they can sample 20+ local and independent drops from all over the country such as, Barossa, Margaret River, Yarra Valley and beyond. Once you’ve got your vino, enjoy the live jazz & blues on the stage nearby, as you sip and sway.
Sweet tooths won’t go unnoticed either. In fact, they’ll be completely accommodated, with a whole area dedicated to Queensland’s best dessert makers and their buttery, flaky goods. And, if you want to elevate your time at the festival, The Experience Zone offers exclusive tickets to once-in-a-lifetime events that get you up close and personal with some of the world’s highest-acclaimed chefs, restaurateurs and entertainers for mouth-watering tastings, world-class shows and unforgettable masterclasses — from brie to bourbon — by industry leaders.
