Chocolate Winterfest in Latrobe: Every year in the July chocolate mavens unite in Latrobe for the chocolate festival. On this one day everyone comes together to celebrate cocoa, or the "food of the gods," in all its different forms. Exhibits satisfying the sweet tooth of both kids and adults will be stationed throughout the event. Take a trip to Latrobe in the winter to be a part of this festival, a great time to be warmed up by the indulgent sweet treat.
Antarctic Midwinter Festival: In June locals gather to celebrate and educate others on the historical links between Tasmania and Antarctica. Fun comes in the form of a parade, art exhibits, and photography contests. Children will learn about the connection between the two locations while getting involved in all the festivities.
