New owners for iconic food event

• Published date: 10 December 2020

Created by Classic Events in 2014, the event has gone from strength to strength and Ammie Hardie from Core Events saw an opportunity to add this iconic event to her own portfolio.

With an exciting array of exhibitors and lots to see, do and experience, the Great NZ Food Show offers the complete food experience and has become a firm favourite with Waikato foodies.

“We know The Great NZ Food Show will be in fantastic hands with Ammie and her team and look forward to seeing the show continue to grow and evolve,” says Michele Connell, managing director of Classic Events.

The Great NZ Food Show was born from the lack of a true ‘foodietainment’ event in the Waikato.

The show offers the ability to sample the latest in delicious edibles, local produce, and innovative products all in one place over two delicious days.

It provides a place to indulge your taste buds with an exciting array of exhibitors offering an incredible range of fine New Zealand produce and product.

Visitors also get to enjoy cooking demonstrations by some of Waikato’s top chefs and cooks, watch chefs battle it out in the Mystery Bag Cook Off and learn new skills in the special How to in 15 activation area.
