NZ Cider Festival 2025 – Takeaways Just Got Fancy (and Fizzy!)
Takeaways Just Got Fancy (and Fizzy!)
Cider Session: Common Food, Uncommon Cider
Time: 1:00 PM
Forget fine dining. This is all about comfort food with a seriously tasty twist. Think crispy fried chicken, a gooey steak & cheese pie, maybe even a cheeky curry, each one perfectly paired with a cider that’ll make you rethink everything you know about takeaways.
Join Yvonne Lorkin (Drinks Editor, Dish Magazine) and John Powell (Cider Apples NZ) for a flavour adventure that’s bold, surprising, and downright delicious. They’ll guide you through unexpected cider pairings, share behind-the-scenes stories, and prove that a humble pie and a glass of cider can be absolute magic.
Your ticket includes:
Food samplers of Kiwi comfort classics
Cider tasters matched to each dish
Expert tips from two of NZ’s top cider lovers
Tickets just $12 per person
(Limited spots — only a few left!)
This is the only ticketed session at the NZ Cider Festival and it’s shaping up to be a crowd favourite.
