The 100-year, 100-mile dinner

Canberra’s food region celebrates its centenary this year with a 100-year, 100-mile dinner as part of the Sydney International Food Festival. A century ago, NSW transferred territory for a national capital "not closer than 100 miles" south of Sydney as Australia’s Constitution stated. In glorious gastronomic coincidence, that constitutional provision placed the national capital at the centre of one of Australia’s most diverse food-producing regions.

Canberra’s 100-year, 100-mile dinner is a chance to celebrate the century, sitting in the seat of government, at Canberra’s table. A unique event designed to showcase both the national capital’s fabulous food and wine region and international influences on our national cuisine, in the perfect setting of the elegant art deco Members Dining Room in Old Parliament House, Canberra.

Cost: $100.

When: Saturday, October 31.
