Your Heathcote on Show FAQs

answered

It’s festival week and we’ve got all of the answers to your frequently asked questions!

  • Heathcote on Show is predominantly a free festival!

    Some venues may charge a tasting fee and some may be hosting optional extra events such as masterclasses that you will need to purchase a ticket for.

  • To help reduce waste we no longer offer printed itineraries.

    We'd love you to use our website to plan your long weekend, however if you do require a card copy you will find a print friendly version in the What's On section of the website or pop into the Heathcote Visitor Centre where the volunteers will happily print you out a copy.

  • In most cases, yes!

    Please check with the venue that you are planning on eating at to avoid disappointment.

  • Whilst there are no official Heathcote on Show shuttle buses this year, there are still a number of options for getting out and about.
