Island Escape Winter Festival, TAS

Island Escape Winter Festival fires up Launceston's Inveresk Precinct for three unforgettable days celebrating Tasmania's music, food, art, and winter spirit.

This bold new festival brings together iconic headline acts, local musicians, celebrity chefs, and creative trailblazers for a program that's as diverse as it is exciting. Feast on Tasmania's finest winter produce, warm up beside glowing fire pits, explore art installations from leading and emerging artists, or dance the night away in the igloo silent disco.

Families can dive into kids' workshops, storytelling, and games, while food lovers indulge in culinary showcases and regional feasts celebrating Northern Tasmania's flavours. As the sun sets, the precinct lights up with music, fire, and light shows, turning winter's chill into a celebration of everything hot, hearty, and homegrown.

From major acts to intimate fireside moments, Island Escape Winter Festival transforms Launceston into Tasmania's ultimate winter playground, where the State's best food, music, and creativity come out to shine.
