The OutInCanberra Race ‘n’ Taste Festival is back in 2010, bringing you the very best of Canberra’s wine, produce, arts and music this Anzac Day long weekend, Monday 26 April at Thoroughbred Park.
Experience a market atmosphere along with the colour and excitement of Thoroughbred racing with an eight-race program.
Local wineries and local gourmet food stalls will be on show, allowing patrons to experience the culinary delights of what the Canberra region has to offer, plus cooking demonstrations and face painting and jumping castles for the kids.
“Bring a picnic rug, enjoy a glass of wine and immerse yourself at the OutInCanberra Race ‘n’ Taste Festival,” Thoroughbred Park’s Briony Young said.
Stalls include local wineries such as Lambert Vineyards and Kamberra Winery, alongside arts, designers, craft and more.
“People who visit the stalls can enter the People’s Choice – Best Stall award. Vote cards will be put on each stall and punters who vote will also go in the draw to win a wine hamper.”
The market stalls line the undercover betting ring, however patrons can purchase a glass of wine or a snack and enjoy on picnic tables in the sun, with the picturesque race track as a back drop.
With an array of tasting stalls, educational talks, cooking demonstrations and cutting-edge handmade goods, you’ll be delighted by the calibre of talent that’s on offer in our capital and its surrounding region.
The day will help to raise funds for Epilepsy ACT, a local not-for-profit, self-help community service organisation formed in 1982 to provide services for people with epilepsy, their families and the community.
Gates open at 11am and entry and parking are free.
