Lakeside Long Lunch
MORE THAN A FOOD &
WINE FESTIVAL
Prepare yourselves for the cultural event of the year.
The Lakeside Long Lunch promises the best Australian wine regions – in one convenient location.
We all know how idyllic touring regions such as the Yarra, the Hunter, the Barossa, the Central West of NSW and Margaret River can be. But why should we have to choose only one at any one time?
In addition to spectacular wine, the Lakeside Long Lunch boasts the best local produce matched with all-day long entertainment.
We want you to experience it all at the Lakeside Long Lunch this September!
