For the sunny days ahead, Melbourne explodes with activity. As the cultural & sporting hub of Australia, Melbourne rarely sleeps; and this summer is no exception.
With Melbourne summer season upon us, there are ample amounts of exciting events planned for those keen to make the most of the warmth and sunshine. From a lineup of sporting events, pop up bars on the river, beachside activities, open air cinemas and rooftop bars packed to the rafters, Melbourne truly does come to life and take advantage of the warmer climate.
What summer also brings to Melbourne, is its outdoor events & festivals. A huge contribution to all outdoor events in this lively city is music and food. Melbourne is well renowned for its extensive range of cuisines and live music all year round. However, in the summer season, this is when Melbourne’s music & food culture really come to life. With the warmer climates, live music can be more commonly found at outdoor events. Additionally, Melbourne’s multi-cuisine food events can be utilised outdoors. How does Melbourne do this? Through food trucks & markets!
This is what Hello Sunshine is taking real advantage of this summer. This February, our festival is bringing Melbourne's best flavours together. Not only this, we’re bringing entertainment and activities for kids and the entire family. So, let’s just say we’ve got everyone on the day covered.
We can expect our delicious, multi-cuisine, decadent food trucks to be a huge hit on the day. We know that food trucks are a staple cultural favourite in Melbourne, and will remain an irreplaceable part of Melbourne's food scene for a long time to come. So put it in your calendars, a huge variety food trucks are coming to your city this summer.
In an age where we demand everything to be delivered or easily accessible, mobility is key. As a result, the food truck experience has only become more and more desirable. There is now an entire food truck industry ready to serve foodies, and we’re bringing them right to Hello Sunshine to give you more access to delicious street foods than ever before.
Apart from the food, what is the real appeal to food trucks? Well, one element is the ease, simplicity and convenience of ordering & collecting your food all in one small location. From here, you can take your conveniently packed food to any location of your choosing. At Hello Sunshine, this is exactly what brought the food truck appeal to us. With an expansive list of activities and artists performing on the day, we wanted everyone to have the flexibility of delicious, mobile food all at their fingertips. There’s so much happening on the day, you’re not going to want to miss it. We also know how photogenic they are. Food trucks have become an ‘Instagrammable’ must when at events or markets. Finally, you can see the food getting prepared right in front of you! We look forward to seeing what our food trucks whip up for you on the day!
When people think of summer festivals, they think of food. It’s simply apart of the experience. Food trucks are not only a great addition to any special outing, but they offer ancillary benefits too. For example, amusement park rides may not be for you. Whereas diving into the world of culinary delights could be your amusement on the day. We say, eat away!
Whatever you decide to get amongst on the day, we look forward to seeing you, your family and friends at Hello Sunshine this February.
