Whether you're a connoisseur of fine wines, a craft beer enthusiast, or simply a lover of delicious cuisine, there's something here to tickle your taste buds.

But it's not just about what you'll eat and drink. The soulful sounds of what the organising committee promise will be a popular lineup of musicians will be your soundtrack for a day of relaxation. Spend the day with family, catching up with old friends, or making new ones along the way!

We're talking about the incredible sponsors, the dedicated volunteers, and the countless supporters who rally behind our festival year after year. Your generosity and commitment are the lifeblood of our event, and without you, none of this would be possible. And, by buying your tickets and attending you won’t just be helping yourself, you’ll be helping our community by supporting this year’s chosen charities Kuaotunu Search & Rescue and Te Rerenga School.
