Flavours! World Food Fairs
Experience the Foods and Flavours of the World!
Flavours! World Food Fairs are a series of food events for those who love really great food, and want to experience some of the huge varieties of ingredients, techniques, and presentations the world's cuisines have to offer. The stalls do not sell just food - they display and offer a stimulating visual and taste experience!
Entry is free to all Flavours! fairs. Food is served in sample portions, and many foods can be also purchased in take-home sizes. All packaging is 100% biodegradable. Each Flavours! event will feature preparation and cooking demonstrations, and cultural performances, depending on the capacity of each hall.
All Flavours! fairs use the AWOP (Another Way Of Paying) card system for all purchases. This brilliant Kiwi-invented system is simple and efficient - customers purchase a card with whatever level of credit they choose to put on it, spend as they want at any stall, and cash in their card when leaving, getting a full refund of all remaining credit (or, bring the card to any other Flavours! fair and continue using it; or get your refund there)
Doors open at 10am and sales finish at 3pm.
