Mindarie Marina will host its seventh ‘A Toast to the Coast’ festival on Sunday, March 24, with more than 20 food stalls and 14 wineries out to tempt taste buds.

Gourmet food stalls will showcase a variety of produce from the region, from chocolates to chutney, oysters to olives, and pastries to popcorn, as well as honey, jams and fresh produce.

Wineries from the Swan Valley and the South West will be pouring samples between 10am and 5pm, while art and craft stallholders will be showcasing their products from 9am.

Event manager Claire Sharman said the free event, supported by the City of Wanneroo, would feature roving entertainers, live music and a kids’ zone with Fairy Queen Caroline, face-painting and other activities.
