The East Coast Harvest Odyssey, known as ECHO, is a boutique ‘Festival of the Senses, celebrating the lifestyle of Tasmania’s East Coast.
Located in Swansea among wine country, ECHO weaves together immersive sensory experiences around the traditions of harvest, old and new. It guides guests on a journey of exploration that encompasses all the senses – taste, smell, sight, sound, and touch.
ECHO nurtures the sharing of Tasmanian Aboriginal stories, knowledge, and culture. It brings together foodies, winemakers, and producers along with artists, musicians, storytellers, scientists, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders.
Since founding the festival in 2019, Tasmanian creative and musician Ange Boxall has poured her heart and soul into making a truly unique multidisciplinary event that goes beneath the surface and fosters authentic connection, with people and place. ,
In 2022, ECHO became a Company Limited by Guarantee under the umbrella title ‘East Coast Arts and Events Tasmania’, and has not-for-profit status.
“There are many a-festival in Tasmania but not many that tenderly inspire and ignite the creative flame of blending the arts, local music, and the science of us in a remote, beautiful and inclusive way as ECHO did.”
The East Coast of lutruwita / Tasmania is an incredible place to live. We eat so well, we get together by the fire, enjoy the local tipples, and share stories. We’re always having fun under the stars and we want to share that magic with everyone.
