MORETON BAY FOOD AND WINE FESTIVAL
The inaugural Moreton Bay Food and Wine Festival will be held over two massive days at Redcliffe on the weekend of September 8 and 9.

Redcliffe Parade will be transformed into a buzzing foodie marketplace where festival-goers can wine and dine on the region's best, while enjoying a full line up of entertainment.

Entry to the festival is free and Moreton Bay Region Industry & Tourism (MBRIT) Chief Executive Officer Shane Newcombe is looking forward to bringing locals and visitors together for the busy weekend.

Visitors will be able to eat, drink, learn and explore the diverse tastes of our region,

sampling food from our top chefs and restaurants, wine and beer purveyors and specialty food vendors, while enjoying picturesque views of Moreton Bay in the background,'' Shane says.

A highlight of the weekend will be seafood cooking demonstrations by celebrity chef Paul West from the popular television series River Cottage Australia.

Catch Paul and some of the region's best chefs showing off their skills at the Seafood and Wine deck both days.

Throughout the weekend, many of the foreshore restaurants will be showcasing special menus as well as hosting ticketed events and workshops.

I encourage everyone to come along and make the most of this weekend - enjoy the local specialities, roll up your sleeves and participate in a workshop, learn some cooking tips from our experienced chefs, enjoy a unique dining experience and take a taste of Moreton Bay home with you, Shane says.

Moreton Bay Regional Mayor Allan Sutherland says culinary events are growing in popularity and boosting the local economy.

The inaugural Food and Wine Fest is a fitting expansion to our already impressive social calendar, which will showcase the very best of what life by the bay has to offer, Allan says.

Take advantage of the free shuttle bus running regularly from the Redcliffe Train Station and Redcliffe Showgrounds to the festival all weekend.
