Cheers! Mordialloc Food, Wine and Music Festival attendees enjoy last year’s event.
Wine time again at music fest THE annual Mordialloc Food, Wine and Music Festival returns to Peter Scullin Reserve in Mordialloc next month. The two-day festival features a line-up of musicians headlined by The Delta Riggs on Saturday and Aussie music legend Richard Clapton on Sunday. Non-stop music will be heard across three stages amid roving performers, gourmet food and wine stalls, rides and children’s activities. “Mordialloc Food, Wine and Music Festival is a great place to spend the weekend to see fantastic musicians, up-and-coming bands and enjoy a wide selection of gourmet food, regionally-made wines and
boutique beers,” Kingston mayor Cr David Eden said. The festival is a family-friendly event with no BYO alcohol or dogs allowed. While parking is available in Mordialloc around the festival site, festival goers are encouraged to use public transport to attend the event. Entry is $2 per person or $5 for a family. The Mordialloc Food, Wine and Music Festival will be held at Peter Scullin Reserve, Beach Rd, Mordialloc on Saturday 4 March (11am-10pm) and Sunday 5 March (11am-6pm).

Are you prepared for grassfire?
If you live in a rural area surrounded by grasslands or paddocks, you could be at risk of grassfire. Travelling at speeds of up to 25kph, grassfires can quickly threaten lives and property. Reduce your risk, slash or mow grass to create fuel breaks around your home, and avoid using machinery near grass on hot, dry, windy days. The reasons why are black and white.
