The three day celebration takes places annually at Launceston’s stunning City Park on the second weekend of February every year and is dedicated to showcasing the best of Tasmanian food, wine, locally brewed beer, cider and whisky. There are over 70 different food and wine stalls to explore which are operated by local restaurants, winemakers and producers.
