What is the difference between high tea and afternoon tea?

The main difference is the timing and type of food: high tea is a bigger meal later in the day, while afternoon tea is a lighter, mid-afternoon treat. In Australia, high tea is like a hearty dinner enjoyed in the evening, with dishes like meat, bread, and veggies. On the other hand, afternoon tea is a lighter, more social event in the late afternoon, featuring finger sandwiches, scones, and pastries with tea.
