There's something for everyone!

Join us in Myrtleford for a weekend of feasting, fine wines and lots of other wonderful entertainment! Here's a summary of what you can look forward to, starting with what's in store for lovers of good food and wine:

Tastes of Italy at Gapsted Wines (May 25 to May 27).  Italian food with wines matched to each course.
Food & Wine Festa (May 26).  Sample wines from the Alpine Valleys Wine region and regional food from around Italy plus live “Nonni in Cucina” cooking demonstrations. 
Hidden Treasures Winery Tour (May 27). Take a coach tour visiting small wineries not normally open to the public. Lunch is included.
Tastes of Trentino (May 27).  Enjoy a traditional feast with wines from the Trentino region and finish the meal with roast chestnuts and Vin Brule.

Our restaurants are also offering Italian-themed lunches or dinners on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

As ever, La Fiera introduces other aspects of Italian culture. This year, there will be a performance of a play called ‘Emma Celebrazione’, a concert of Italian musical gems, a re-enactment of the Living Chess Match, soccer matches, a bocce competition, and an exhibit depicting the lives of Italian prisoners of war held in a camp near Myrtleford during World War 2.
