Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Today Berrima is a favourite day trip destination for Sydneysiders and Illawarra and Canberra residents It offers exquisite boutique shopping antiques and great food
Moss Vale the Shire CapitalMoss Vale is the gateway to the Hume Highway and the Illawarra and is cen-tral to Southern Highland townships and villages and to Highland attrac-tions The town retains an atmosphere and charm of yesteryear due to an ef-fort to preserve and restore old public buildings and private homes

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the

In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days

Food amp Wine Festival - 15 amp 16 SeptemberOne of the biggest food and wine events in NSW is on again in the Southern Highlands in September
After the worst wet weather in 60 years forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated inaugural Festival in March of this year the disappointment of organisers exhibitors stall holders and those planning to attend resonated near and far
For the Southern Highlands region renowned for its award winning food and wine restaurants hospitality and talent this original premier event created much excitement and a buzz throughout the Food and Wine Industry so the timing of the rescheduling of the event was always going to be of the
utmost importance ndash March 2013 just seemed too far away
In light of this major sponsor Dan Murphyrsquos has agreed to fast track the re-staging of the event through additional sponsorship enabling the event to be launched as originally planned in 2012
Robert Kay President of the Southern Highlands Food amp Wine Association said ldquoThis initiative of the Association is a cornerstone of our plans to increase awareness of the Southern Highlands as a producer of fine wines and artisan food as well as home to many excellent restaurants so we are very grateful to Dan Murphyrsquos and the other sponsors like WIN Television Berrima Bus Lines Radio 2ST Southern Highland News and Kennards for agreeing to double-up on their sponsorshiprdquo
ldquoThe decision of sponsors to renew their support acknowledges the calibre of the event as well as the vast amount of interest generated for the March event as a showcase for the Southern Highlands Region and itrsquos exceptional Food and Wine Industryrsquo
In an exciting development the Inland Tourism Barbecue Challenge to be televised by the Nine and WIN Television networks will also be a feature of the Festival in 2012
The two day festival will showcase the regionrsquos exceptional food and wine as well as arts and crafts displays retail outlets live entertainment and plenty of activities for children
Complimented by a delicious undercover food court and a posse of talented award winning chefs on hand to demonstrate their culinary expertise and knowledge of local produce there will be plenty to peruse learn taste and savour
Festivities will be set to the delightful Jazz croons of popular band Ellarsquos Holiday live entertainment favoured by industry legend and local Geoff Harvey and most recently much loved comic Barry Humphries
The tantalizing multi-awarded wines of the region will be available for tastings throughout the Festival with many a case finding a spot in the car boot for savouring post festival
Shuttle Bus services from Bowral Train Station to the Event will be operating on both days
