This year’s event would be bigger as it celebrates the 45th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries, Karen Lanyon, Australian Consul-General in HCM City, said.

Through April, a series of events would be held in 10 cities and provinces, including community BBQs, industry galas, a food and wine show, a culinary competition, and hospitality training, she told the media recently.

The musical events include a music and wine pairing on April 3 in HCM City with Australian classical pianist Van Anh Nguyen, a performance by singer-songwriter Nick Barker at a community BBQ in Da Nang on April 22 and an appearance by singer Deni Hines at this year’s Hue Festival.
