The Great Eastern Wine Week is back in 2024 for our 10th year! The Festival will be hosted between September 6th - 15th.
The First Friday night (the 6th), we will be hosting a signature event again in a new format, we have taken on last years feedback and we have ensured that we create a high level event for all event holders and attendees. VENUE TBD. At this event we will have live music, and each event holder will be asked along to sell their product in a ‘taste’ style format as an added revenue for each participant like last year!
The rest of the festival will run as normal, with our finest East Coast producers hosting their unique events!
Program bookings for the Great Eastern Wine Week are now open. The aim is to produce an exciting program that will interest visitors from within Tasmania and interstate, to come to the East Coast region and have a taste of our extraordinary wine and produce. The success of the event will be the engagement of all the Wineries on the East Coast, along with our food and hospitality partners.
Get creative when planning your events and try partnering up with other businesses that will enhance the visitor experience, remembering that wine must feature in your event e.g. ‘Yoga in the Vines with Bubbles, Long Table Lunches with Matched Wines’.
