Held annually across the festive New Year period on the picturesque waterfront of nipaluna/Hobart, Tasmania's Taste of Summer is a celebration of the island's world class food and drink, culture, community and summer. A fun and inclusive family-friendly festival, Tasmania's Taste of Summer provides patrons with an immersive Tasmanian food and drink experience, with more than 80 stalls to choose from. The Taste of Summer stage showcases an eclectic line-up of well-known and emerging Tasmanian artists, and each year there is an iconic Australian act for the New Year's Eve festivities on the waterfront, also offering one of the best vantage points to ring in the New Year with fireworks over the harbour. Whether relaxing under the shade of Salamanca's Plane Trees watching the kids play on the lawns, or toasting the summer fleets as they sail by the wharf apron, Tasmania's Taste of Summer is the perfect way to experience the best of Tasmania's summer season!
