Broome's Mango Festival

Australia is blessed with sunshine and great beaches. And because the sun shines all year round in the land down under, it is a perfect escape for tourists during the winter months.

Moreover, the daily sunset camel ride is also tourist attraction. However, there is more to Broome than camels and tropical white pristine beaches.

Every year on November when the air is signaling the return of summer, the mango orchards of the town are preparing a rare treat. Mangoes of different varieties are becoming ripe that's why the towns people have been celebrating the annual Mango Festival for 24 years now. Chefs, housewives, wine experts and the average joe gather to showcase their talents in the three-days of mango madness.

The housewives get to showcase their talents in making homemade cakes, jams and chutneys to be decided by a panel of judges. On the other hand, chefs will make the kitchen more exciting with their mango dishes in the much anticipated Great Chef of Broome's Event. Tourists can also idle around to taste mango cocktails or bring home the best mango wines they could find. There's also a quiz night for everyone who knows the ABC's of mango.
