If you’re a New South Waleser born and bred, you are probably already well versed in how good our state actually is. But for those of us in Sydney who don’t always get the chance to taste, smell and get stuck into the many facets of the state we call home, Pyrmont Festival is ready to celebrate everything that makes NSW such a great place to live.
Quality wines, artisan chefs, farm-fresh produce, delicious treats and live music from all four corners of the state are the earthly delights that await you over the two-day festival that’s set to hit Pirrama Park from May 18 to May 19. Now celebrating its 12th year, highlights at Pyrmont Festival will include wine tastings from Elbourne Wines, Tulloch Wines, and McKellar Ridge Wines; a whole fleet of food stalls with eats including fresh oysters, fried chicken, Asian street-food snacks, authentic pizza, and yum cha; and live entertainment from singer Jo Fabro, the Crown Jewel Band and more. Plus, there will be face painting, art classes and big outdoor games suitable for all the people in your family – big and small.
Alex Gibbs, Pyrmont Festival director said, “This year we have welcomed winemakers, brewers and distillers from across NSW. This includes producers from Orange, Mudgee, Murrumbateman and the Hunter Valley.
“Anticipate a sensory explosion with more than 20 wineries, breweries and distilleries, alongside gourmet food trucks and stands offering a smorgasbord of cuisines,” he said.
Head down from 11am on Saturday, May 18 and Sunday, May 19 for a local food and booze bonanza that won’t break the bank (entry is free) and come and celebrate all the things that make NSW so great. Find out more info here. And bring a hat!
