If you think that Maryborough is all about heritage and Hervey Bay is all about whales, think again!
Get ready to savour the moment with Relish Food and Wine Festival at Maryborough’s Portside on June 3.
Relish is food festival that celebrates
all that is good in the Mary Valley and Hervey Bay,
and that’s a full menu.
This town is going to need its stretchy pants because the temptations that are going to put your palate to the test are many and varied.
Set against the rolling green lawns that edge the wide Mary River, Relish is food festival that celebrates all that is good in the Mary Valley and Hervey Bay, and that’s a full menu.
The locals will be out in force sharing their food secrets, and they have plenty to tell.
