The Paired Plate

Food and Wine

24 Jul 2026 to 2 Aug 2026 Annual Event

One plate. One pour. Perfectly paired on the Sunshine Coast.

The Paired Plate is a self-guided food and drink trail across the Sunshine Coast, running for the full 10 days of The Curated Plate festival. Each participating venue has created one signature pairing, a carefully chosen dish and drink, focused on local Sunshine Coast produce.

Simply visit any participating venue, order their Paired Plate offering, and once you’ve enjoyed it, scan the QR code at your table to cast your vote. Every vote enters you into the draw to win a Queensland’s Sunshine Pantry hamper packed with local produce, plus a voucher for the winning venue.

There’s no set itinerary and no tickets to purchase, just explore one venue or work your way through the trail at your own pace across the 10 days. The more venues you visit, the more you vote, and the better your chances of winning.
