What’s On

 

Thank you to all who contributed to an outstanding 2026 event.

We’re busy behind the scenes preparing an amazing program for the 2027 Harvey Harvest Festival Friday March 12th – Sunday 14th. Save the dates!

 

Here’s an overview of Harvey Harvest Festival 2026:

 

Saturday, 7 March – Harvey Harvest Long Table Lunch 

Our second Long Table Lunch was part of the weekends events. A memorable afternoon celebrating the rich harvest, local flavours, and community spirit of the Harvey region.

Once again, this was a sell out event. Set among the beauty of our agricultural heartland, the Harvey Harvest Long Table Lunch brought together growers, producers, chefs, and friends for a shared feast showcasing the very best of the season.

With a thoughtfully curated menu featuring locally grown produce by Citrons Catering, paired with regional beverages, live entertainment, and long-table dining in true Harvey style, our attendees had a fabulous afternoon of food and friendship.

 

 

Sunday, 8 March – Harvey Harvest Festival Day

The iconic Festival Day at Snell’s Park is the traditional part of the three day program. This free event is filled to the top of the barrel with live music, art, food, and cultural experiences. Held annually for over 25 years this community day is much loved by locals and visitors alike.

Saturday 7th of March Harvest Window Adorn Creative Workshop

Local Emporio hosted a special hands-on workshop celebrating the region’s vibrant harvest and stunning natural flora.
Participants enjoyed a morning of craft as they were guided through the creation of an ecological, nature-inspired window adornment—a beautiful piece designed to bring the colours, textures, and spirit of Harvey’s orange harvest right into their homes. Perhaps you were lucky enough to see some of the fantastic window displays around town.
