Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival bigger and more delicious in 2025

With an expanded event space, a star-studded line-up of chefs and producers, and a wide array of new experiences, the 2025 Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival is poised to be the best yet.

The event, in its seventh year, will return from August 22-24 to the Woody Point foreshore in a celebration of food, wine, and community.

Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival CEO Shane Newcombe says festival favourite Miguel Maestre will be back as the headline chef for 2025.

“Not only will he be showcasing his skills through cooking demonstrations, he will also host exclusive dining experiences and meet-and-greet events for those who want a more up close and personal encounter,” Shane says.

“Miguel is just the first of many talented chefs, producers, and foodies set to be announced in this year's incredible line-up.”

After two sold-out days last year, festival organisers have made some big changes to enhance the patron experience.

Shane says the event site has been expanded to cover 1km in length, providing space for more premium festival tents and structures.

“Based on careful consideration of feedback, particularly from Peninsula locals, the festival will feature 200 per cent more shade structures and twice as many food outlets in various formats, including producers offering samples, food trucks, pop-up restaurants, cafes, and more,” he explains.

“With five stages of live entertainment and a staggering 1500 per cent increase in masterclasses and add-on experiences, festival-goers will have the opportunity to curate their own unforgettable experience.”

Insider access for groups

For the first time, the festival is introducing a Concierge team to assist groups of eight people or more, whether they be corporate or social, in booking bespoke itineraries, private space hire, or full weekend staycation packages.
