What’s On in the Huon?

There are lots of events to see and things to do year round in the Hobart & Huon Valley areas of Southern Tasmania. Here’s a few that we’ve collected…

(Please note that dates and events may be subject to change)

Spring

In the sun-bathed Valley, you’ll plant, pick and produce tantalising fresh fruit, veggies & flowers – or hunt and gather goodies at colourful roadside stalls or Grower’s Markets.

Perfect weekends are right on your doorstep, with clean beaches, waterways, parks, bike trails, BBQ’s & playgrounds all within easy reach. Sporting and social club venues offer plenty of activities for the young, and not-so-young!

Summer

Warm fun-filled days and cool relaxing nights. Its holiday time, and the Huon is abuzz with craftsmen prepping specially built boats to celebrate the great Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race, while local chefs vie for the most select produce to showcase their culinary delights at cafes and restaurants around the valley.

Autumn

Fresh air, blue skies, alluring sunsets. Time to plant, prune and mulch gardens; explore foreshores, walking trails and nearby National Parks. Try-out for your favourite team sport or try your hand at fly fishing – there’s a fish run just around the bend at PortView Estate.

Cooler days are delightful and invigorating. Fresh breezes fill the sails glistening in the sun as boats skip through the white caps for the last of the sailing season. Autumn leaves glisten red, gold and silver in the gentle sunshine. The Valley is on show, and there’s a flurry of activity yet to happen before the big sleep…

Events

Winter

Across at The Cafe the flickering log fire, Roz’s Award winning Hot Pies, winter warmers and Roast Nights are all good reasons to meet a friend, linger longer and perhaps even spot a celebrity… or two!

Trendy workshops & local libraries cover your every hobby or interest. Join a Gourmet Cooking Class or get the jump on Spring with a Boat Maintenance Workshop at Franklin Marine! Entertainment is alive and well… near to home the Home Hill Winery hosts Virtuoso Concerts and Wine Tastings while live music at Kermandie Hotel seems just right for Jazz, Jumpers and a jolly good time. Explore the local Art Scene, or trip off to MONA for a different point of view!
