Happy kids posing at Savour the FlavourGet your tastebuds ready and add the 2024 event to your calendar!

Savour the Flavour is "a festival of flavours" and a great opportunity for visitors (and locals alike!) to sample and purchase delicious food, produce and beverages from Hawkesbury farmers and businesses all in one place.

The event will be held on Richmond Oval and Richmond Park from 4pm to 9pm on Saturday, 12 October 2024.

Entry is FREE.

Savour the Flavour is an opportunity to celebrate the Hawkesbury and surrounds past, present and future as Sydney's original ‘food bowl’. The Hawkesbury region produces some of Australia’s best fresh food and plays a critical role (and always has!) in feeding Sydney and areas well beyond.  Proudly brought to you by Hawkesbury City Council, and event sponsors, Savour the Flavour was created to support and showcase local producers and the wonderful food and produce made, grown and available right here. The inaugural event was held in 2022, 2023 was even bigger and better - so strap yourself in for Savour the Flavour this year!

Ladies smiling with vegie people charactersCake Queen Katherine Sabbath will be the MC of the family friendly program which features cooking demonstrations and messy makers workshops available for both adults and kids. Make sure you check the times in advance to plan your day.

Roving entertainers and live music will set the vibe, and amusement rides (additional cost) will keep the whole family entertained.  There's even an apple pie eating competition!

While much more that just a market, Savour the Flavour stall holders are handpicked from the huge array of local producers in the region - the tastiest food and drink and so much more! Bring your shopping bag to stock up on all the local fare.
