Food and Culture Coming Together
31 July – 3 August 2025
Festival of Gastronomy
As a proud expression of Launceston’s designation as a UNESCO City of Gastronomy, agriCULTURED connects the threads of food, farming, culture, creativity and community to shape a food future that is equitable, sustainable and uniquely Tasmanian.
A Feast for the Senses:
Celebrating Tasmania's Agri-Food Contribution
At the heart of agriCULTURED lies our celebration of the agri-food sector – a cornerstone of Tasmania’s culture, community, and economy. Here, we revel in the joy of food, fresh from the fields and into the hands of passionate cooks. Be ready to savour a sensory extravaganza that showcases the best of Tasmanian produce. This is where we applaud the dedication and passion of our local producers, an edible homage to their tireless efforts.
Seeding Ideas
Growing Futures
agriCULTURED is proudly committed to being a zero waste festival, championing regenerative food systems and a circular economy. As a three-time winner of the Visit Northern Tasmania Sustainability Champion Award, we believe what nourishes us should also sustain the planet.
The Journey of Food
From Paddock to Policy
Every meal tells a story: of people, place, and the systems that connect them. We invite you to trace that journey, ask the bigger questions, and reconnect with the origins of what’s on your plate. In doing so, we create space for greater understanding and a deeper appreciation of sustainable, resilient food systems that prioritise people and the planet.
