Tickets on sale now for 2025 Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival
Published 10:00am 29 April 2025
The 2025 Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival is serving up its biggest program yet, with tickets on sale from today for what promises to be the most flavour-packed weekend of the year.
Returning to the Woody Point foreshore from August 22-24, the seventh annual event will deliver its largest site, program, and chef line-up to date, marking a bold new era.
Stretching along 1km of waterfront parkland, the expanded site will include five entertainment and demonstration stages, twice the number of food outlets and producers (from previous years), and a staggering 1500 per cent increase in ticketed masterclasses and add-on experiences.
Festival CEO Shane Newcombe says this year’s program reflects a significant investment in guest experiences.
“We’ve listened to feedback and dialled everything up for 2025, from 200 per cent more shade structures and double the seating, to a record number of premium events and immersive experiences,” he says.
“Our expanded offering means festivalgoers can truly curate their own weekend, from relaxed grazing to intimate encounters with leading chefs, wineries and gourmet food producers.”
Moreton Bay City Council Mayor Peter Flannery says the festival’s continued growth reflects the City’s commitment to be a premier destination for major events.
“Last year’s event sold out and it’s no surprise why; this festival has fast become a standout on Queensland’s events calendar,” Mayor Flannery says.
“We’re excited to welcome thousands of visitors to City of Moreton Bay this August to experience our local food producers and everything else that our spectacular foreshore and hospitality has to offer.”
This year’s headline talent on The Kitchen Stage presented by Ausbuild is led by Julie Goodwin, who will make her festival debut, alongside returning favourite Miguel Maestre.
They’ll be joined by Mike Reid, Matt Golinski, Alastair McLeod, and Simone and Viviana - the 2024 My Kitchen Rules winners, delivering a dynamic blend of star power and substance. Festival favourites Kim McCosker and Dominique Rizzo will also return.
Don’t miss the fun
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.
Thanks to the support of major partner Ausbuild, a limited number of discounted locals’ tickets will be available for Friday and Sunday, exclusively for residents of the City of Moreton Bay.
For those wanting to supercharge their festival weekend, the 2025 program introduces more premium ticketed events than ever before, including celebrity chef high teas, lunches and dinners, 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.
The Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival is proudly supported by the City of Moreton Bay and Tourism and Events Queensland through the Queensland Destination Events Program, which highlights the unique experiences and destinations that make Queensland a must-visit.
