May 23, 2010 (PRLEAP.COM) Travel News
LateRooms.com reports the Good Food and Wine Show is expected to attract thousands of culinary enthusiasts when it arrives in Sydney this summer.

Taking place at the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre from July 16th to 18th, the event offers a mouth-watering programme of cookery classes, wine-tasting sessions and celebrity chef demonstrations.

A number of Australia's famous gastronomes will be preparing food live in the show's Celebrity Theatre, which offers visitors an authentic experience of high-quality cooking "without edits or re-shoots".

Meanwhile, some of the nation's finest bartenders are set to go head-to-head in the Australian heats of the SKYY Vodka Global Flair Challenge, which will run throughout the show.

People using accommodation in Sydney can also look forward to coffee and cupcake sessions with the Sunbeam Academy, while master chocolatier Thomas Schnetzler will be running the Lindt Chocolate Masterclass.

Standard tickets for the Good Food and Wine Show are priced at AU$28.50, while people visiting in groups of ten or more will be charged AU$23.50.

The Sydney event follows the Melbourne and Perth editions of the show, with events in Adelaide and Brisbane due to take place later in the year.

Located at Darling Harbour, the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre is about ten minutes away from the heart of the city and boasts an attractive waterside location.
