The Summerside Festival - throughout February at venues in the Canberra region

The members of The Poacher's Way are delighted to present the inaugural Summerside Festival for February 2012. Many of you will be familiar with our signature event, The Fireside Festival held each August and on the back of the success of this we're showcasing the best of the region in summer with the Summerside Festival.

Celebrating everything good about summer in the Canberra region, this month-long festival is full of dining events celebrating local and seasonal produce, opportunities to taste the best of the region’s wines as well as innovative and exciting performances, events and exhibitions.

So grab your friends and discover summer in the Capital with a lazy long lunch, twilight cinema, creative experience, master class or champagne and wine tasting or make a weekend of it at one of our B&Bs - and finish it all off with an indulgent day spa experience or twilight ride on horseback...

PS - The Fireside Festival will be held again this August for the best of the region in winter... stay tuned
