This is a celebration of Myrtleford’s Italian heritage and culture which is said to have started from a motor rally called the Italian Connection Motor Rally in 2007. This event comprised cars of Italian manufacture where the cars travelled from Sydney to Melbourne and stopped overnight in Myrtleford. The town was approached for the stop because of the region’s strong Italian heritage.

You can enjoy a mix of events at various locations and businesses, with Italian-regional stalls and pop-ups, offering a huge range of fare from authentic gnocchi, pizza, grilled octopus, polenta and local wineries are also showcased ensuring there’s a drop to suit everyone’s taste and the opportunity to meet the winemakers.
