This year foodies will have the opportunity of an early Festival program announcement and access to pre-release tickets before Christmas. Tickets will be available from December 12, exclusively to the Festival’s loyalty group, the Chilli Club, which anyone can join, before tickets go on sale to the general public on January 5, 2015.
“In 2015 we’re focussing on new trends and spearheading some original new events, such as a Wild Food Dinner, new and exciting food trails, lifestyle discussions, putting the industry’s trending topics front and centre,” said Festival Director, Jim Berardo. Next year’s line-up is bringing together more of what festival goers want; we’re delivering more events on Noosa Main Beach, more beach parties and of course, more of the fun people know and love about the Festival.”

The festival also spearheads the latest in food trends and interactive discussions with the country’s top media and restaurateurs.
