Tasting ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog
We’re honoured to be a 2024 Premier Partner of Tasting ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog, the country’s largest eating and drinking festival.
Running from 3 to 12 May, the South ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog-wide festival brought together the nation’s leading producers, chefs and winemakers to create and celebrate excellence in their respective fields. In doing so, it highlights the incredible influence that our ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog has had, and continues to have, on these pivotal ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlogn industries—a remarkable number of those hosting Tasting ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog events this year are ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Adelaide alumni.
Tasting ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog 2024 has finished, but you can still check out their website and stay tuned for updates on the 2025 festival.Â
What's on our menu
In addition to supporting the full spread of Tasting ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog events, we also ran a series of masterclasses showcasing the impact the ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Adelaide has on agriculture, food, and wine.Â
The ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Adelaide Masterclass Pavilion
There were an exciting array of engaging presentations and workshops held in the ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Adelaide Masterclass Pavilion, broadening attendees’ knowledge and appreciation of wine, beer, spirits and more. The pavilion was conveniently located right in the heart of Tasting ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog action, in Adelaide’s Victoria Square.
Outside of Town Square, the ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Adelaide also ran five masterclasses at the Food Innovation Lab at the Waite Campus for the very first time, highlighting the exciting and important work being done by UoA researchers.Â
