Festivale

What started out as a humble multicultural street party has transformed into an epic three-day summer extravaganza, celebrating the best of Tasmania’s cool climate produce, beer and wine. Almost 30,000 people flock to Launceston’s historic City Park to catch big-name music performances, fresh comedy acts and celebrity chef cooking demos. Come hungry and pick up a picnic’s worth of food from the stallholders selling everything from tempura mushrooms and bolognese spring rolls to chicken momos, blackberry ice cream and charcuterie boxes. Tassie’s finest wineries, breweries and distilleries are also on hand to keep you refreshed throughout the weekend.
