Why food lovers will want to flock to Kakadu in May

Kakadu-National-Park

The food festival 65,000 years in the making returns to Kakadu for ten days of culinary celebrations in May.

From May 22–31, the Northern Territory’s annual Taste of Kakadu celebration will bring its ten-day program of food frivolity back to Kakadu National Park.

During the gourmet getaway, the naturally beautiful landscape belonging to the Bininj/Mungguy people will form the backdrop to a series local-inspired food events.
