Everything you need to know about the 2024 Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival

By Tyler Nash

What’s included in your General Admission ticket

Your General Admission ticket includes access to 10 festival zones, access to all chef stages, access to all music stages, and a free festival cup for patrons aged 18 and over.

Entry to the festival

There is only one main pedestrian entry gate into the festival. This entry gate is located at the Victoria Avenue end of Apex Park, Woody Point, across the road from Bramble Bay Bowls Club.

The ticket booth is also located here.

Entry to paid dining experiences

Paid dining experiences are located either in the Pavilion zone or the Lodge zone, depending on what you have selected.

All paid dining experiences are add-on events – you will need to have a General Admission entry ticket in order to access the festival site.

Parking and transport

Parking

Free parking is available just down the road in a designated satellite car park at Pelican Park, Clontarf.

Please note, the satellite car park closes at 11pm each night.

Street parking is available around Woody Point unless otherwise signposted, however, please note that it is extremely limited.

Accessible parking

Limited accessible parking is available on-site in the Bicentennial Park car park, opposite the festival entry.

Access to this car park is opposite Victoria Avenue, off Hornibrook Esplanade, and you will need to show your Disability Parking Permit to gain access.

This area will only be accessible during the event’s operating hours and 30 minutes on either side.

Drop off/pick up zone

A designated drop off/pick up zone will be set up next to the festival entry in the Bicentennial Park car park, which is opposite Victoria Avenue, off Hornibrook Esplanade.

Strictly no parking will be allowed in this zone, and standing time will be monitored by marshals.

This area will only be accessible during the event’s operating hours and 30 minutes either side.

Taxi and rideshare

Taxis and rideshares can pick up/drop off on Hornibrook Esplanade alongside Bicentennial Park, or they can also utilise the drop off/pick up zone located in Bicentennial Park.

Shuttle bus

A shuttle bus will also run between the car park at Pelican Park and the festival site.

All buses are pram and wheelchair friendly.

The bus will run approximately every 15 minutes, otherwise, it is a quick 10-minute walk to the festival.

Shuttle bus operating hours:

  • Friday: 9.30am-9pm.
  • Saturday: 9.30am-9pm.
  • Sunday: 9.30am-7pm.

Public transport

A TransLink bus stop is located at the festival entry, perfect if you don’t want to drive.

You can catch a bus directly, or take a train into Kippa-Ring or Sandgate first.
