Good Food & Wine Show | Christmas Market

.

Amazing day!

It was fine.

Great day

Not bad, but considerably less interesting stalls than in the past

Great variety of more than just wine on offer! Lots of spirits and new things to try, stallholders were so passionate and friendly

Great event. Lots of food and good wine as expected!

Great, but prepare to overheat.

Awesome place

Excellent event, loved it. So much to try, and many products purchased that made our Xmas lunch shine!

Great event for foodies! Loved it

Loved it. Such a great opportunity to try products and buy things that are not accessible in the shops.

I loved it they had everything you could ask for fantastic day out. The only issue I had was it was soo hot and there wasn't any air-conditioning at the venue.

Lots of interesting stalls.

loved the smaller than usual festival with some great offerings, thanks for the opportunity to attend!

Great event for any foodie !! Don't miss it !

Good range

So many stalls!

lots of line up to try things but still enjoyable

The show was great

Such an amazing, festive experience with great demos and stalls.

Very good and tried some great wines.

Christmassy fun

So much good quality food! And fascinating stories from the makers.

Lots of yummy food and drink!

Fabulous time out with friends.

Lots of fun.

great venue and good variety of wines and goodies...just in time for Christmas!

Excellent!

Such a great fun event

Really enjoyed it, made some yummy purchases.

Good although the venue was primitive compared to the previous at the ICC, no Air con just fans.

Awesome

Great night

Good fun. Great exhibitors.

Very small set up

Great show

Good event, a lot smaller than the main one which was nice.

Great venue and lots of vendors

So easy to get around with wonderful demonstrations

too crowd. Not enough variety of things of Christmas products.

Lots of vendors, fun to browse and sample interesting food and wine.

This Xmas Market was very crowded but amazing nonetheless. My daughter and I bought lots of wonderful Xmas presents and sampled some great products.

There were a lot of alcohol stalls but not many Christmas products.

Great to chat to vendors & learn about the smaller scale producers.

Fun event. Bought some delicious products and being able to taste before you buy is a big help. The food trucks were disappointing with not much food options to eat lunch at. The event was a bit small and way to much alcohol stalls and not enough food or other fun christmas products.

Loved it. Lots of samples to try. Some tasty products to buy and good ideas for gifts. I'd again next year.

Very limited gluten free unfortunately bit otherwise ok

Not much in the way of Christmas fare.

Great event

A shed of outlets with very little Christmas spirit.

Was great fun

Absolutely fantastic I bought some delicious treats and got to talk to people about how to improve my kombucha making and my absolute favourite was the hazelnut milk and chai I bought from a lady who has a shop on Akland street which now I can’t wait to visit. Will go back next year !

Loved it bought heaps

Fantastic event!
Plenty of food (as well as drinks) for all tastes.

Such a great opportunity to attend the Christmas Markets. So much fun and great food was had.

Always a lot of fun

Had a great time! Much better than expected

Great ideas very friendly

Excellent afternoon of great food, drink and Christmas gift ideas. Especially enjoyed the Smelly Cheese stall, Pettersens and the gin stalls.

Everyone has a great time out, lots of sampling and Christmas gift ideas too

Great day with lots of great stalls & tastings. Will be going next year.

Thanks. Enjoyed sampling the food and wine.

Good event. Lots of different stalls showcasing their goods. Will definitely go again when it’s on.

Nice festival. Had a little mix up with the tickets but the were kind enough to let us in. I spent way too much money on cheese.

Not as big as the mid year but still a good day out.

Loved it!

A wonderful day out trying a multitude of wines, gins and cheeses. Recommend.

Love the event!

Good fun

A wonderful day out tasting news products. I really enjoyed the Yarra Valley Caviar.

Not enough Christmas gift packages. Not enough food ideas.just a lot of alcohol

Wasn’t too crowded and so many interesting things to try! Salmon, Sake, Chocolate, Wine, Chillies, Relish, Rum. That was just in one aisle.

Food and drinks are excellent, except the hot weather.

Absolutely loved the show. We are foodie lovers and loved trying out all the different foods and drinks. The only negative was that it was a hot day and there was very little ventilation, especially in the dining area.

Great day

Lovely night

Would have preferred more food stands and Xmas gift ideas. Too many alcohol stands. Nevertheless a fun time was spent there

Great event. Brought the in laws and kids along. Everyone had a great time

Amazing selections

Much smaller than I had expected. A lot of alcohol vendors, felt out of balance to the food providers

Great event and lots of fun and tastings!!

Good day out, wine, cheese, snacks yum yum

So much alcohol stands & not enough food. That's why it's made the day so much fun!

Great Friday night, not as many food producers as alcohol but still great Xmas ideas.

Awesome food and wine

it was ok.

It was exactly as advertised. Lots of wine and delicious food to sample. Excellent value. My only gripe was that it was very similar to the recent Food and Wine Show at the same venue. Maybe there could’ve been more Christmas gifts on show?

Lots of new products and samples

Fabulous tastings lot of fun

Go every year and have a great time; this year was no different. Came away with lots of great gift ideas and new wineries to try next year.

Great opportunity to try a few different and (sometimes) unique products

Great exhibitors and lots of fun.

Fabulous once again. Such a variety of tastings, cooking demonstrations and Christmas present ideas. What’s not to love? Highly recommend

Very good event. Lots to see and sample. Glad we got there early as was very crowded after lunch. Would maybe go on the Saturday next time as a couple of the stalls had run out of things I would have liked to have purchased had I been there earlier

Lots of fun sampling a big variety of food & drinks.

It was a great day out with friends, easy access by public transport, excellent food and wine.

Was ok with a decent selection of stalls. Compared to the one held in the middle of the year - it unfortunately paled in comparison.

Good event, plenty to sample.

Nice range of local products, including some new businesses. Lovely atmosphere throughout the show. It’s a shame this event was smaller than the previous Good Food and Wine show, but I did appreciate that there were some different stalls as well as some of the favourites.

Absolutely brilliant day out. Discovered some new wineries, bought amazing wine and chocolates. Looking forward to visiting a few of these wineries in the new year.

Great day out food & wine tasting with some Xmas shopping done too.

What a wonderful market full of yummy treats and lots of taste testing and sipping wines and gins.Thank you for a great day out

Great event and a lot of fun for a few hours, will go again

Always so many great options and staff eager to have you sample. Always best to not drive to these things.

Fun evening. Friendly wine makers.

Wonderful evening of tasting and discovering a fantastic range of specialty foods and beverages. Great atmosphere it was delightful to engage with so many of the exhibitors.

Great fun couple of hours, plenty of tastings, some excellent deals and a ton of great gins to try! My sister and thought it was excellent value for the day out!

Great event with many unusual food offerings! Maybe relabel it food and GIN show!

Much smaller than the Good Food & Wine Show in June this year and not many special offers. Still enjoyable and a fun way to spend a couple of hours.

Good event

Fun day

Location was good but way to hot!

Event was amazing, but the venue was too hot.

Great options. Lots of great gifts …Only thing venue was very very hot… made it very unpleasant as lack of air

Great food gifts for Christmas and some yummy treats for on the spot sampling or the pantry. Lovely atmosphere and not too crowded.
