A TASTE OF THE TASTE
TASTE OF SUMMER RETURNS WITH A BANG
Returning to the Hobart/Nipaluna waterfront from 27 December to 3 January, Taste of Summer once again sets the table for Tasmania’s ultimate celebration of food, drink and culture. Across eight sun-soaked days, more than 80 stallholders showcase the best of the island — from freshly shucked oysters and slow-cooked delicacies to award-winning cool-climate wines, local spirits and small-batch brews. Alongside the exceptional food and drink, visitors can settle into premium waterfront seating at the Yacht Club, catch the action in the Sports Bar, and watch over 250 artists bring the site to life — from bands and DJs to roving performers — the festival soundtrack is as vibrant as the menu. For those wanting a deeper experience, Taste introduces its first dine-in pop-up restaurant, hosted by Season & Fire, featuring a flame-cooked Feed Me set menu. Wine lovers can meet makers and discover what sets Tasmanian wine apart at the Winemaker Series, a collection of intimate tasting sessions running throughout the festival. Taste also provides a spectacular vantage point to witness the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race as boats cross the finish line right outside the event precinct — a uniquely Hobart way to spend a summer afternoon.
New Year’s Eve
Toast to 2026 with the city’s best view of the fireworks, and a cracking lineup of local and interstate musicians, DJs, and roaming performance, while Tassie’s finest food, wine and cocktails fuel the party. Featuring headline act Hindley Street Country Club and a dress up theme; Neon Nights.
