Head over to food truck park Welcome to Brunswick for the return of the Hot Sauce and Chilli Festival.
Usually held at sister venue Welcome to Thornbury, the 2021 iteration of this mini-festival includes a hot sauce market selling some of the country’s (and the world’s) best chilli sauces from the likes of Melbourne Hot Sauce, Blair’s Death Sauce, Grumpy Gary’s and more.
Plus, if you’re down to try some, 40 lucky Melburnians will be signing up for the Hot Sauce Tasting Challenge. Punters will try ten of the world’s hottest sauces (with no milk!) and whoever lasts the longest will take home a keg party and a trophy.
Food trucks like Mr Burger and Woking Amazing will also be putting their hottest dishes forward. Don’t miss the Hot Pocket shot – Welcome to Brunswick’s in-house bar will be serving this spicy creation and drinkers will need to sign a waiver before trying it.
The festival happens on Saturday, April 17 from noon to 6pm.
