It’s been a long-time in the making for the first proper Melbourne Food & Wine Festival – Regional Edition.
We got our first taste of MFWF in regional Victoria way back in March 2019 when the tiny Gippsland dairy-farming town of Jindivic was taken over for The Village Feast.
This time around, we see the return of The Village Feast to Gippsland added to a large number of events across the state to become MFWF’s Regional Edition running from 18 to 27 November.
As an added bonus, you can receive 25% off your tickets as part of the Victorian Government Dining and Entertainment Program (T&C’s apply).
Victoria’s High Country Crawl and Bite
MFWF devotees will be happy to know that the much loved Crawl and Bite event will be relocated to Victoria’s High Country with the progressive food adventures moving across venues in the towns of Beechworth, Bright and Rutherglen.
The Village Feast
The Village Feast will see the picturesque town of Thorpdale turned into a souped-up country fair for the weekend. Gippsland producers will set up alongside pop-up food outlets from local and interstate chefs, with a live music program brought to you by Always Live.
Signature Escapes
Deep dive into regional Victoria with unique itineraries developed by the state’s top chefs, producers and hoteliers. Take a behind-the-scenes tour of the Yarra Valley with a local winemaker, discover the producers of Victoria’s High Country with Michael Ryan (Provenance) and take a luxurious culinary tour of western Victoria.
Ballarat Unlocked
Ballarat will be home to a number of quirky foodie occasions, unlocking hidden locations across the city. Find street food and DJs in an old laneway, an Italian fiesta in a former drive-through and a five-course degustation menu served in the basement of the Mechanics’ Institute.
