Get Ready to Feast!

Lismore’s signature food, arts, and culture festival is back. Norco Eat the Street returns to the CBD on Saturday, 22 August 2026 from 12pm to 7pm. This year, the festival moves to a cooler August winter calendar to ensure a comfortable, family-friendly afternoon out.

Keen Street and The Quad will transform into a vibrant, pedestrian-first celebration featuring more food stalls and a greater variety of local flavors than ever before.

The Full Program is Coming Soon!

While the team is still cooking up the final details, a massive lineup is already shaping up. Here is a tiny taste of what to expect:

• Crowd favorites like the Pie Eating Competition and the latte art event are making a highly anticipated return.
• Plans are underway for Lismore’s first-ever Waiter’s Race to showcase the region’s hardworking hospitality crew.
• Live entertainment will fill the streets, including a grassroots Busking Competition and the Cake and Cordial Sessions, a family-friendly songwriter showcase paired with sweet treats.
