Good to Know
Getting there
Tram line 4 to Riverside stop, ferry at Pier 12, and bike racks at the north gate. Parking is limited — carpool or roll in on two wheels.
Paying
Entry is free. Stalls accept card and mobile pay; a few carts are cash-only, so bring a little pocket money for the short queue.
Family friendly
Kids' tasting trail, stroller parking, and a quiet corner with lawn games. Dogs on leads are welcome in the park.
In case of rain
The festival runs rain or shine. Shade tents cover the eating area — grab a spot early if the clouds look busy.
