Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival full preview

Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival starts this week at Woody Point’s Apex Park.

The ultimate foodie event will stretch across more than 1km of waterfront on from August 22-24.

This year’s event will include about 180 food and drink exhibitors, three music stages, and a curated selection of masterclasses and dining experiences, from pasta making and cocktail shaking to free wine masterclasses hosted by some of the best in the business.

Celebrity chefs appearing at this year’s festival include Julie Goodwin, Miguel Maestre, Mike Reid, Matt Golinski, Alastair McLeod, Simone and Viviana - the 2024 My Kitchen Rules winners, Kim McCosker and Dominique Rizzo.

Festivalgoers can secure a day pass to the Festival Precinct, which includes access to live cooking demonstrations, market stalls, pop-up bars, and live music across three vibrant zones—The MarketPlace, The Cellar Door, and The Springs.

For those wanting to supercharge their festival weekend, the 2025 program has more premium ticketed events, including celebrity chef lunches and dinners, high teas, wine, spirit and cheese masterclasses, immersive workshops, local produce showcases, and unexpected fusions of food, comedy and live music.

Guests can also discover the all-new Oasis Club, a premium VIP precinct offering indulgent views and elevated hospitality.

One of the standout features of the Moreton Bay Food + Wine festival is its curated program of bookable experiences, designed to turn a good day out into something a little more special.

From crafting the perfect cheese board (yes, with wine in hand) to exploring boutique spirits and standout Australian wineries, these sessions are designed for curious palates. Add-on experiences start at $35, and spots are filling fast.
