The Noosa Food & Wine Festival will return in June 2026 with a refreshed program and a significant change.

After several years as Noosa Eat & Drink, organisers will restore the festival’s original name. The event will once again trade as Noosa Food & Wine.

This year matters because the festival is reclaiming the name that shaped its legacy. The return celebrates Noosa’s role in Australia’s food story. At the same time, it signals confidence in the festival’s future. Organisers aim to balance heritage with new ideas.

Alongside the name change, the festival has revealed its 2026 Signature Events. Tickets went on sale from 20th November. With support from Tourism Noosa and the Queensland Government, the festival is expected to attract strong national interest. As a result, the four-day event will showcase hundreds of chefs, winemakers and producers against Noosa’s coastal backdrop.
