Agfest goes online in 2020

Agfest will go online this year because of the Covid-19 virus.

Renaming the event Agfest: Paddock to Cloud, the Agfest committee has utilised a $65,000 grant from the Tasmanian government so that stallholders can sell their goods.

Agfest chair Ethan Williams said organisers knew exhibitors had already bought stock and spent funds on their stands’ signage and designs.

‘Many companies rely heavily on Agfest revenue as they head into the quiet winter months,’ Mr Williams said.

Agfest will run from 7–28 May this year.
