Since 1990, North Sydney has been holding the Twilight Food Fair every Friday evening during summer. This 2019, however, the event has been extended until the end of March.
From 5:40 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Civic Park on Miller Street becomes an entertainment and recreational centre for families and groups who want to try different international cuisines.
This year roster of food vendors at the Twilight Food Fair include:
- Authentic Turkish Gozleme
- Bamboo Story
- Brazilian Flame Barbeque
- Figjam Creperie
- Gelato Man
- Modernyaki
- New Madras Cuisine
- Oktoberfest Hut
- Pasalubongs Filipino Soul Food
- Sofrito Paella
But the Twilight Food Fair is not just a food lover’s paradise. Apart from the gastronomic delights, guests are also treated to live entertainment from local bands and other acts. People sing along, dance and relax to the music; it’s the perfect way to end the work week!
Children, on the other hand, may join interactive games, glitter tattoo party, face painting activities, and story time sessions.
Each weekend has a different line-up and here are the entertainers for the last two weekends:
- 22nd of March The Vicky Turner Band and Bricks 4 Kidz
- 29th of March Crunching Numbers
Due to a couple of weather disturbances last summer, the North Sydney Council decided to extend this year’s run. Check the Twilight Food Fair page for schedule changes and other updates.
