The 2012 Truffle Festival runs from the Winter Solstice June 21 - July 31

The festival launch coincides with the Winter Solstice - this magical, wintry time of year brings with it the Canberra region’s highly prized quality French Black Truffles and marks the start of truffle season in one of Australia’s key truffle growing areas. Some of the Canberra region’s best foodie venues including restaurants, wineries, bars, cafes, truffieres and food markets are on board this year to bring you the most amazing truffle-filled events. Get hunting in the popular truffle hunts, learn in master classes and cooking demonstrations led by esteemed chefs, taste from truffle inspired menus and tasting sessions and gain knowledge in truffle growing and our own native truffles.
