Experience Australia’s Coral Coast on a plate at this impressive seafood festival.

Shore Leave is back with another jam-packed line-up of events celebrating the world-class seafood and scenery of the Mid West region. Running from April 23 to 27, the festival includes seafood markets, live music, adventure tours, craft workshops and fine-dining feasts.

Throughout the event, chefs will take to the stage at the Geraldton Foreshore to give free culinary showcases – though some of the event’s biggest show stoppers are ticketed.

Due to popular demand, the Abrolhos Long Table Lunch on East Wallabi Island returns with two sittings. It’s helmed by local Bib & Tucker’s Scott Bridger and Ben Ing, a former Noma head chef who opened now-closed Alberta’s alongside ex-Noma gardener Kirsty Marchant. Flights will be chartered to the tiny, uninhabited East Wallabi Island for a seafood lunch that includes the region’s famed rock lobster.

Ing and Marchant are also behind the Mid West Paddock to Plate event, which will again return to Yanget Farm for a dazzling night of dining and drinking under the stars.

Shore Leave runs from April 23–27. Tickets are on sale now.
