The Winter Wine Festival 2026 Experience
Located just 90 minutes south of Sydney, Crooked River Estate serves as the perfect amphitheatre for this mid-year celebration. The 2026 edition continues the festival’s legacy of pairing award-winning cool-climate wines with a high-energy atmosphere. Attendees can enjoy a range of premium reds and whites crafted on the estate’s rich volcanic soil, alongside local gourmet food stalls and artisan markets.
VIP Winter Wine Festival 2026
For those looking to level up their weekend, the festival offers VIP packages that include access to the brand-new restaurant and bar. These exclusive tickets provide direct stage views and undercover heated areas to keep you comfortable during the crisp coastal evenings. With Yours & Owls handling the entertainment curation, the Winter Wine Festival 2026 ensures every beat and every glass is of the highest quality.
A Massive Double Header Lineup
The Winter Wine Festival 2026 boasts a lineup that celebrates both ARIA-winning legends and rising stars. On Saturday, Matt Corby brings his soulful, multi-instrumental magic to the vineyard stage. Joining him are local indie-rock favourites The Vanns, whose anthemic choruses always get the Gerringong crowd moving.
Sunday shifts the energy with the infectious indie-pop of Lime Cordiale. Their sunny vibes provide the perfect antidote to the winter chill. They are supported by the folk-infused harmonies of Sons Of The East and the high-octane energy of Le Shiv. Throughout the weekend, the Sultans of Spin DJs will keep the tempo high between sets, ensuring the music never stops.
