The popular Empire Bay Food and Fun Fair will celebrate a remarkable milestone on Saturday, October 21.
The Fair will mark 100 years of the Empire Bay Progress Association and will feature mouth-watering food, food artisans and a performing stage showcasing local artists throughout the day.
There will be a variety of culinary options and the Empire Bay Fishing Club will host the ever-popular barbecue.
Turkish Gozleme and Pizza Italia will bring lip-smacking treats and Mr Goaty will serve his one-of-a-kind gelato.
Local favourites such as JenJams, Emerald Tea Traders and Gifty’s Ghana Kitchen Spices will also be there and the four-legged brigade won’t be forgotten with doggy treats available.
Fair-goers are encouraged to bring picnic blankets and indulge in treats from Empire’s D’Lite while enjoying a glass of wine from the Empire Bay Tavern, an apple cider from Sydney Brewery Cider or gin and craft beers from Empire Bay Cellars.
The talented local musical artists performing on the day include Christie Chen, The Empire Bay Public School, Coast Christian College choir and the Central Coast Strings.
A kiddie’s corner will offer free activities, including Connect 4 games, hula hooping and face painting.
The Rural Fire Brigade fire truck will be there to entertain the kids and educate locals before the Summer and the local Sea Scouts will also be on hand.
“The Fair has become a favourite event for locals and visitors to enjoy delicious food, share a drink with family and friends and be entertained by local performers,” Empire Bay Progress Association President Ken Shaw said.
“Association volunteers are excited to be part of the event and have been working hard so that the community, together with visitors, will feel excited and celebrate.
“All funds raised will be donated to local community groups.”
The Fair takes place from 11am-5pm on Saturday, October 21, at the Empire Bay Hall at the corner of Gordon and Sorrento Rds.
