British chef, restaurateur and television personality Marco Pierre White, who attended the festival in 2015 and described the experience as 'life changing,' will participate in a one-off collaboration dinner at Sittella Winery in the Swan Valley, as well as appearances at the new family-friendly Gourmet Feast in the Valley.
To be held on the grounds of Sandalford Winery, Gourmet Feast in the Valley is a food and music event that will see authentic culinary experiences complemented with a live music program, and headlined by Australian alt-rock favourites The Rubens. The Swan Valley will also host the inaugural World Gourmet Symposium – a trade event designed to educate, dissect and debate the future of food, beverage, tourism and hospitality industries.
David Chang from New York's legendary Momofuku restaurant empire, will headline the ever-popular Westpac Gourmet Beach BBQ in the Margaret River region, teaming up with his Sydney-based Australian counterpart Paul Carmichael. Other returning event favourites include the Gourmet Village at Leeuwin Estate, Cullen Chardonnay Wine Tasting and Lunch, and Sunset Beats and Bites.
Marco and David will join an impressive line-up of global culinary leaders including Danny Bowien (USA), Amanda Cohen (USA), Pierre Koffmann (UK) and Ivan Brehm (Singapore), who'll be welcomed by Australia's brightest stars including Alla Wolf-Tasker (Vic), Jock Zonfrillo (SA), Josh Niland (NSW) and WA local Seth James.
Guests will have more chances than ever to feast, sip, dance and discover their way through a diverse program of more than 50 events, taking place from November 8 to 17. The full program of events can be found on the Western Australia Gourmet Escape website, with details on the Perth events expected to be released in August.
