ECHO Presents the Native Bounty Feast 'Spring Edition'

ECHO Festival's iconic Native Bounty Feast, is a shared food experience showcasing local and indigenous produce. 
For the Great Eastern Wine dinner, patrons will dine in the Spring Vale Vineyard marquee at beautifully styled tables, under festoon and candle light. We will have suggested pairings of Spring Vale's finest East Coast wines.
ECHO's Native Bounty Feast is an unforgettable and delicious experience, a true feast for the senses and a lot of fun.

The GEWW Native Bounty Feast will be prepared by Tasmanian Chef, Simon Ford, of Marefold. Simon's travels have seen him cheffing on the world’s most beautiful super yachts, private estates and even private planes, yet his food remains accessible and genuine.  Simon and his team will be cooking up a feast to showcase Tasmania’s talented, hardworking, and visionary primary producers.

Your ticket includes a welcome drink on arrival. 
The bar will be open from 6pm. The event starts at 6:30pm, ready to be seated by 7pm for dinner.
