The Chefs Gala Lunch - Sunday 31 May 2026
Join one of the Mornington Peninsula's most celebrated culinary events, The Chefs Gala Lunch, where exceptional food, great company, and a generous spirit come together for an unforgettable afternoon on the Peninsula.
This year's Gala Lunch brings together some of the region's most exciting culinary talents, under one roof for a curated, collaborative feast unlike anything else on the Peninsula calendar, including Chef Ryan James and Chef Michael Demagistris.
With a curated menu influenced from paddock to plate, the sun-drenched Mediterranean, succulent Italian fare in an opulent dining experience hosted by the iconic Continental Sorrento, each venue brings its own distinct character to a menu that celebrates the very best the Mornington Peninsula has to offer.
Including a curated selection of matched wines from Cellar Connection, Turners Crossing, and Rahona Wines, gin from Bass & Flinders distillery and artisan beers from Jetty Road Brewery that will ensure every course is perfectly paired.
Supporting a Great Cause - The Chef’s Gala Luncheon carries a meaningful purpose beyond the food and festivities. The event proudly supports:
The Sorrento Chamber of Commerce and The Portsea Camp Children’s Charity, an organisation with a proud legacy spanning 80 years which has transformed the lives of over 80,000 Victorian children.
Proceeds from the day will go towards supporting The Portsea Camp Making a Difference Programs, providing children with life-changing experiences that foster joy, build resilience, and develop skills to face life’s challenges with confidence.
