It’s no secret that we’re fond of a drink and even fonder of food so when events like the Pyrmont Festival is on it’s practically like a second Christmas for us.

Running from May 16 until May 25, the Pyrmont Festival is in actual fact a collaboration between one of Sydney’s premier dining districts and top produce and wine regions, Mudgee. The ultimate event to experience a fabulous blend of city and regional produce and creativity, guests can enjoy wine dinners and tastings, photographic exhibitions and art displays without having to leave the city. Iconic Mudgee wineries participating include Huntington Estate, Burrundulla Vineyard and Lowe Wines. Winemakers and Pyrmont eateries will expertly select wines to match lunches, dinners and tastings across the 10 days.

The festival headliner is a two-day outdoor event with free entry* in Pirrama Park on the weekend of 17 and 18 May (11am-5pm) that caters to the whole family, with a program of live music and local artists across both days, as well as rides and children’s entertainment. Guests can meet the wine-markers and taste more than 120 wines, as well as sample a broad range of fine foods at more than 50 stalls.

The Festival will run for ten days, starting May 16 and finishing on May 25 and will be held across various venues in Pyrmont.
