Shedfest

Overview

Spring has sprung and it's time for wine. Namely, glasses upon glasses of the Yarra Valley's finest, poured at the return of the region's long-running wine celebration, Shedfest.

From Saturday, October 12–Sunday, October 13, the festival will see 14 of the Yarra Valley's best-loved wineries opening their sheds and cellar doors for a weekend of tastings, tunes and wine-fuelled merriment.

Hop between the likes of Tokar Estate, Soumah, Seville Hill, Yering Farm and Yileena Park, tasting an array of wines along the way and soaking up live tunes as you go. Each venue will be offering up its own menu of signature dishes, too — including Texan-style burgers, pizzas, Sicilian barbecue, banh mi and modern Thai eats.

You can nab a one-day ticket for $35 to enjoy tastings at all 14 wineries across the weekend, which also includes a wine glass for you to take home. Lots of the wineries are dog-friendly, so you can even bring your pooch along for the ride.
