This free to enter festival is hosted by Restaurant and Catering Queensland and the Gold Coast City Council. A La Carte on the Beach forms part of the Tastes of the Gold Coast festival, which runs for two weeks from 22 August until 7 September.
Festival organiser Wendy Lacey said free entry and sampling the best of the Gold Coast lifestyle makes this one of the most popular annual events on the food calendar.
'Gold Coast locals enjoy an incredible lifestyle of fresh seasonal produce and world-class restaurants; we invite visitors to the region to meet the winemakers, chat to the chefs and take in some inspiring natural settings, from the ocean to the hinterland in this year’s annual food and wine festival,' she said.
