FESTIVAL goers will be hangin' ten and celebrating the beach culture of the state's East Coast this weekend.
Everything people love about the East Coast, from the food and wine to the tunes and the surf, will be on offer at Bicheno.
In its fifth year the annual Bicheno Food and Wine Festival will be incorporating the best producers exclusively from the East Coast.
"One of the best things about this community celebration it's truly regional," festival organiser, David Quon said.
"We have 12 different winemakers from Orford to St Helens and they'll all be here.
"It's a family friendly event with everything from a chocolate cake competition to helicopter rides."
There will be music performances all day from local musicians and for the first time an exhibition and show and tell of vintage surfboards.
There will be more than 60 boards, all from local collections and will feature 1970's "Turf" boards designed and made in Tasmania by Ben Richardson and Leigh Steven.
"These are 1970s classics," said veteran surfer, Ronnie McCulloch, of Falmouth.
"Surfboards are works of art and provide an insight into surfing history and culture.
"Old surfboards are being re-visited -- there are lots of retro designs around now."
Bicheno is about a two-and-a-half hour drive from Hobart. The festival will kick off at 11am on Saturday and wind up at 5pm.
Entry to the festival is $10 for adults, $5 for children aged 5 to 16. Children under 5 are admitted free. Entry tickets include live music, access to the Art Space and a chance to win a helicopter ride on the day.
