As the leaves fall and the vineyards change, the Barossa Vintage Festival summons a new chapter of history for this iconic region. A biennial celebration set against the stunning backdrop of the Barossa and Eden Valley, this festival has been evolving for 75 years, adapting to a world in constant motion.
Previous festivals have seen over 70,000 visitors flock to the region, and this year's 75th anniversary is being celebrated through the presentation of 75 epic events dotted throughout the Barossa.
The unique character of this picturesque corner of the world will once again be on full display as we celebrate the post-vintage harvest. This festival pays homage to the event's rich history while embracing the future with open arms.
