Twilight Festival
The BIG event for the Festival is always the huge community celebration. There is always a wide selection of multicultural entertainment, foods and products of local wineries.
A united Nations Village is a highlight with a fabulous range of entertainment and roving entertainers throughout the evening that addscto the festival atmosphere.
As the evening progresses, excitement builds on the main stage where Australia's best "world music” bands entertain and transport the crowd, "all around the world”. All of this and much more and best of all, it's FREE.
Stay tuned to see what 2009 will have in store at this fun-filled family event. Check the festival website: www.sheppartonfestival.net.au
Art on a Plate
Each year at Art on a Plate, the SheppARTon Festival welcomes a renowned guest chef to delight the crowd with spectacular cuisine, drawing on local foods and wines as the inspiration.
In 2008, guest Chef Matthew Wilkinson treated us to a classic feast, and dance students from Victorian College of the Arts entertained with a delightful performance during the evening.
