The Williamstown Italian Social Club (WISC) hosted its Williamstown Italian Festival over the weekend.
WISC president Carlo Abate said it was a huge event that went very smoothly.
“We had close to 2000 people across the whole day which was filled with entertainment and food,” he said.
Visitors enjoyed Italian folk music and performances by local talent, as well as a range of food options.
“We had a pasta demonstration and gnocchi making. We had Italian continental sausages, pizzas made on site, fresh cannoli and fresh gelati,” he said.
Mr Abate said people sat around eating, playing bocce, as well as enjoying a display of Italian classic cars and motorbikes.
“The day was a huge success and beyond our expectations,” he said.
“Next year we would like to do it bigger and better and close down the street.”
