Kapiti Food FairThe Kāpiti Food Fair: The best day out with GOOD friends, GOOD times, GOOD food…...and FABULOUS VENDORS!
Kāpiti Coast, Wellington, New Zealand, September 15th, 2022: With less than three months to go, the team behind the Kāpiti Food Fair have started their official countdown to event day – and they’re excited to share more about the vendor line up they have planned for December 3rd!
“We’ve nearly hit capacity at 250 vendors which is very exciting, particularly now the Government has removed the Covid traffic light system,” says Helene Judge. “It’s a massive relief for us, and the whole events industry in New Zealand, as we can now keep working with the confidence of delivering an amazing summer destination ‘day out’ this December. We know New Zealanders are ready and waiting for large major events to put that sparkle back into their lives as we move into this next phase of change.”
“We’ll be ready for everyone, and we know our vendors are also getting excited and well prepared for our big day out. Currently, 62% of our vendors are packaged products, including a large liquor zone off licence and the other 38% are ready to eat vendors operating from under gazebo or food trucks & trailers. No one will go hungry with the United Nations of food on offer and there will be plenty of gluten & dairy free and vegetarian & vegan options, so really something for everyone.”
Each year, it’s the aim of the Kāpiti Food Fair to curate a wide selection of items from Kāpiti and all-over New Zealand. Some examples from their past events include: Chocolates, sweets, fudges, turkish delight, licorice, toffee apples, jams, marmalade, jellies, relishes & pickles, pate, pastes & syrups, sauces, dressings, vinegars, dips & spreads, pestos & salsas, dukkah & preserves.
And there’s more: Figs, peanut butter, nut butters, breads, baking & cupcakes, cheesecakes, donuts, macarons & pastries, wines, beers, champagne, cider, mead & ports, liqueurs, whiskey, gin & vodka, juices, cordials & soda, teas, coffee, chai & kombucha, olives & olive oils, nuts, salts, peppers, ice cream, popsicles, gelato & sorbet, koeksisters, popcorn & candyfloss, meats, pies, salami & sausages, seafood and cheeses.
Rounding out the Kāpiti Food Fair’s list, they’ll have vendors with honey, health & balm products, microgreens, herbs, spices & rubs, rice & noodles, pizza bases, vegetable wraps, cracker bread, muesli, sprouts, fruits & veg, kitchenware, DIY kits, tupperware & gadgets, henna art, recipe books, plant holders, handcrafted utensils, holders & accessories, pottery, chopping boards, spice racks, plates & platters, pet foods, pepper grinders, mortar & pestles, eco & reusable bags & packaging, edible gardens, free range eggs & and much more.
