Slow Food Festival serves up a success

The inaugural Slow Food Festival Mundaring – Food, Wine and Spirits 2026 brought Mundaring Sculpture Park to life in October, celebrating the people, produce and flavours that make the Perth Hills unique. The free community festival connected over 2600 attendees with more than 30 exhibitors, performers, producers and community organisations, showcasing the very best in local produce and community initiatives.

Supported by $50,000 through the Shire’s Arts, Culture and Events Funding Stream, the festival showcased local wineries, distilleries, growers and artisanal food producers while creating opportunities for community groups to connect with residents and visitors.

From artisan food and beverage tastings to cooking demonstrations, workshops, local products and family-friendly activities, the festival provided a vibrant platform to celebrate our region’s food culture and support the local visitor economy.

The event demonstrated how Shire grant funding can help bring new experiences to the Hills, strengthen connections between local producers and the community, and showcase Mundaring as a great place to live, visit and explore.
