Taste’s first full service dine in restaurant experience, in collaboration with the masters of live fire cooking, Season & Fire. Watch as Tasmanian Aboriginal seafood and premium local produce is cooked over coals and transformed into bold, seasonal dishes.

Three acclaimed winemakers leading Tasmania’s new wave. Join Aunt Alice, Glaetzer-Dixon, and Rivulet Wines for intimate masterclasses at Taste. From bold Shiraz to playful ferments, each session offers a rare glimpse into how experimentation is reshaping the island’s wine identity.

The only smokers you’ll find at the Taste. In the Forecourt, four pitmasters roll in with Texan-inspired smoker trailers for a true barbecue spectacle. Expect low-and-slow favourites, rich with smoke, spice and southern soul.

Elevate your Taste with exclusive access to the Yacht Club. A waterfront escape with premium service, curated drinks, and the best seats in the house for soaking up summer.

Step into the kitchen with some of Tasmania’s most inventive chefs. These masterclasses give you a front-row seat to the techniques, ingredients, and stories behind the festival’s most daring dishes — a chance to learn, taste, and see the craft up close.
