The event you’ve been waiting for all year
Indulge in the Taste of Tropical North Queensland, our famous Food & Wine Festival is back once again this August with great food, wine, cocktails, live music and so much more!
Get ready to sip, savour and celebrate the tropics as you taste your way through an enticing range of winemakers, distillers, brewers and producers, alongside food stalls showcasing FNQ’s stunning local produce.

We are a family-friendly event until later into the evening, so please feel free to bring the kids – under 18’s receive free entry.
