Foodies and music lovers take your marks – the Eltham Street Food Fest is here.

Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the Melbourne CBD, the special event features a stellar lineup of food trucks, music and all things in between. The dog-friendly and all ages festival runs over two weekends in February in leafy Eltham.

Presented by Melbourne events team Not Quite Brothers, the massive lineup features over 30 performances. Headed by The Kite Machine, the lineup boasts performances from Joel Quinn, Gary Eastwood, Dan Vogl, Ryan Schmidt, Dover Island, plus heaps more – spread across four days and nights.

Attendees will also be lucky to immerse themselves in a rotating series of food trucks over the two weekends. “Our love for food has developed from an obsession with potato cake rolls, to finally embarking on our first venture into food truck territory.”, festival director Brad Stern commented.

He added, “We’re excited to show all the food trucks, live music, and authentic market stalls are on offer. We’re also so stoked to be supporting local businesses along the way.”

Melbourne indie up and comers Dover Island will be playing never before heard tracks off their debut EP, and Dan Vogl will be playing a rare show with his full band. Festival staple Gary Eastwood will do an extended set, playing his own tracks and well-known covers.

This free event goes down from 2-3 February and 9-10 February. It takes place in Eltham at the Eltham Community Reception Centre.
