How
about Australia’s best market,
every Saturday at Salamanca
Place in Hobart’s dockland?
Or
a concert performance by our Tasmanian
Symphony Orchestra, one of the world’s finest small orchestras?
Or
a visit to the nation’s biggest craft
fair in Deloraine every November?
Each
month of the year, there’s fun and festivity. Hobart’s
Summer Festival is two weeks of flavours, music and sunshine,
with the Taste
of Tasmania and the thrilling finish in late December of the
world’s finest blue-water ocean racing classic, the Sydney
to Hobart Yacht Race. The Tamar
Valley Festival of the Senses incorporating Launceston’s Festivale is the
north’s cultural focus in February. The Australian Three
Peaks Race and Targa
Tasmania add excitement to April, the Suncoast
Jazz Festival brightens June, and Blooming
Tasmania’s botanical and floral delights bring touring routes
alive with colour from springtime to autumn. Whenever you visit,
you’ll find events, action, interest and excitement.
