Perth IWFS is hosting the Asia/Pacific Zone (APZ) Festival in March this year. We have over 90 national and international members arriving during the first week in March. Members are coming from NSW, Victoria, USA, UK, Philippines, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Taiwan, Japan, the Cayman Islands, India, Zambia …. have I missed anyone?
Our planning committee has worked hard to produce an engaging and exclusive programme to showcase WA wines, food, attractions and scenery. We all hope that our local members will also be involved to take advantage of the experience and the opportunities that will arise from such an international gathering.
The Pan Pacific is our hotel of choice for accommodating our guests and will be the centre for many of our functions. It is offering members very competitive rates during the festival.
Festival Programme
The Festival programme has been designed to showcase Perth and its surrounds to all the attendees.
Members and guests will experience fine dining coupled with unique and historical venues. From our Perth Mint to cruising on the Swan River and visiting our iconic city of Fremantle and Cottesloe beach.
The wine and food will be unique to Perth and Western Australia. We will showcase the best our young wine and food industry can offer….and you know that we can offer world stars!
