Known as the fruit bowl of WA, the small South West town of Donnybrook is just over two hours from Perth and the gateway to the Geographe Wine Region. While many travellers pass through for a quick produce or petrol pit stop, the Long Table Lunch is reason to linger longer.
On Saturday 14 November 2026, guests will gather in a rustic yet stylish setting inside an old fruit packing shed on Orchard 1 Sixty, a third-generation orchard run by the Licciardello family. Here, long communal tables will be laden with the region's beautiful bounty for an afternoon of dining and dancing.
This year’s menu is crafted by renowned restaurateurs behind Market Eating House, celebrating the abundance of the spring season, with fresh local produce taking centre stage.
Dishes will be paired with a selection of high-quality local wines, beer, cider and non-alcoholic beverages, including wines from Smallwater Estate and beverages from Shag Brewing Company.
Beyond the feast, guests will enjoy live music by Groove Addiction, a silent auction and a door prize to round out the afternoon.
Run by a talented team of local volunteers, this event lets the town's flavours, community spirit and country hospitality really shine, proving Donnybrook is a destination worth visiting.
If you’re staying nearby, buses will run from Bunbury, Boyanup and the Donnybrook Visitor Centre, so you can relax and make the most of the day.
