A duo from the Red Tie Band entertained diners … the full band will be back in Memorial Park on Saturday<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

March 12, 2016<\/strong><\/p>\n

The music echoing from Kingaroy’s Memorial Park on Friday night is a signal that the annual South Burnett Wine and Food in the Park Festival is on this weekend!<\/p>\n

The now-traditional dinner under the stars on the night before the festival attracted 100 diners to the park to enjoy a three-course dinner featuring South Burnett produce.<\/p>\n

After last year’s rainstorm, tables were set up inside the giant wine tent but organisers need not have worried as the weather was perfect.<\/p>\n

Guests mingled in the park before their meals were served, enjoying canapes including strips of Wagyu rump, Peking-style duck, Bunya nut balls and oyster shooters.<\/p>\n

The mains included pork belly, Moroccan-style lamb and petit filet mignon.<\/p>\n

After a perfect start to the festival, organisers are looking forward to an even bigger day on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Gates open at noon.<\/p>\n
