About The Festival

Food and wine lovers in their hundreds and thousands each year indulge in more than 300 events that fill Melbourne’s labyrinthine network of restaurants, laneways, lights-turned-down basements and dizzying rooftops as well as spilling into spectacular regional Victoria.

Beyond the buzz of the Festival in March, you can visit us here to browse hundreds of other food and wine events taking place year-round across Victoria, showcasing the very things that make Melbourne – and our surrounding regions – such a gastronomic playground: an abundance of fresh seasonal produce, bustling food markets, innovative chefs and their award-winning restaurants, expert winemakers, the warmest of hospitality and passionate artisan producers.

So deep is this pride, that we encourage you to Put Victoria on Your Table with two fun months of seasonal events – The Roast Collection (each June) and The Spring Graze (each September).
