Events for those who want to experience the Hill’s diversity by visiting a few wineries in one day. Think live music and DJs, fire pits, mulled wine, casual food, and wine tastings, of course. Some of these events General Admission where $20 includes entry and a souvenir Riedel wine glass. Some are premium events which cost a little more.
For wine explorers, here the focus will be firmly on appreciating the outstanding excellence of Adelaide Hills wines. Hosted by an expert, guests will be taken through curated wine tasting flight, discussing points of interest on each wine. Many classes compare Adelaide Hills’ Pinot and Syrah to their French equivalents.

Most are multiple-course sit-down dining affairs and are intended to take time for true indulgence. Fireplaces and heaters will abound, to ensure everyone stays comfortably warm.

These can be purchased at the first General Admission venue you attend, presentation of this glass will then gain entry to all other General Admission events over the weekend.
