The festival is a great mix of returning and new stall holders to keep the range of products and food as interesting as we can. It is the stall holders who really make this festival what it is, so it is important to have new ones each year and to also have the regulars coming back. We need to stock up each year on some of their yummy products and it is great when we get to try something really new. This year will be better than ever as we will have a 'New Product' presentation on Stage One.
We have over 90 stalls across the site, listed below. They include funky clothes, herb and chilli plants, great sauces and spices, mind blowing hot sauce, beer, wine, deserts, meals, kids rides and much much more. Have a browse and decide who to visit when you come to the Herb and Chilli Festival.

It is all Australian & one of a kind and most of all people love it. Ned Kelly Red is a Red Wine Spritzer, a blend of premium Australian red wine with orange and lemon juice, its all natural, has no artificial colouring and is good for you. It is 5% alcohol in volume and is totally refreshing. A small survey was conducted amongst our target audience as well as some older and some younger. The results were surprisingly good. Most liked the product and the decision on the name had to be finalised. By the end of 2003 “Ned Kelly Red” was born and a new legend has been created.
“Have a Ned Instead” is all you need to say so ask for it at your favourite bottleshop. Website
