A Taste For LIving is a deliciously fun day featuring food from over 15 local restaurants, 5 wineries, live music from some of Australia's acoustic rock and world music legends, exciting art exhibitions, lively kids' activities and much, much more.
And who better to headline A Taste For Living, than ARIA-Award winning Australian rock legends, My Friend The Chocolate Cake? My Friend The Chocolate Cake have a 15 year, five album history, and their most recent album was the 19 track retrospective, Parade. My Friend The Chocolate Cake travel between atmospheric and ambient through to full scale romps and ballads; offering a unique and unsurpassed combination of moods.
Joining the appropriately-named band on stage are a range of multicultural groups, including African drumming and dancing ensemble Zuzu and Voyeu Rhythmic, NSW-based Bolivian guitarist Victor Monasterio en Castellano, six-piece Cuban Bank Sambumbia, plus acoustic folk artists Milk and Emma Wild. Other activities available at the festival include a Bush Tucker tour and tasting, Koori visual arts exhibition, Circus Oz workshop, Little Feet Music workshop and Tiddalik the Frog.
The event is firmly based in charity, so A Taste For Living is a day for gluttony without guilt. Patrons are asked to make a donation on entry to Oxfam Australia, who will have representatatives at each gate. All stallholders are helping to raise funds for the Art of Difference disability arts program.
Other highlights include-
Food from The Graham, Stavros Tavern, Caffe Zappa and more. Wine from Tahbilk, Montalto, Innocent Bystander, Pizzini and more. Massage, reiki, astrology, yoga, laughter club, health information stalls and more.
