Overview

The Hunter Valley's music and wine festival Grapevine Gathering is gearing up to finally return to the vineyards of Pokolbin's Roche Estate in 2022 after several postponements and cancellations over the last two years. The festival pairs the very best drops with a vibrant music lineup full of local talent.

British indie-rockers The Kooks who are currently touring their beloved 2006 debut album Inside In / Inside Out lead the lineup alongside party-starters Peking Duk and 'Untouched' icons The Veronicas. They'll be joined on the winery stage by Ball Park Music, Jack River, Confidence Man, The Rions, Alice Skye, Nyxen and Becca Hatch. It's going to be a big day of tunes, folks.

Aussie sketch comedians and Instagram celebrities The Inspired Unemployed are taking on hosting tunes to keep you entertained between acts.

In addition to the tunes, punters will have access to an array of first-rate food options and a heap of wines, of course. Plus, as a special treat for NSW festivalgoers, the festival has teamed up with KFC to give away free fried chicken for you to enjoy between sets. That's right, there will be live music, plenty of wine and free KFC, all in the same place. What more could you want?

To help make commuting to-and-from Pokolbin a little easier, the festival has organised return buses from Haymarket, Penrith, Newcastle, Gosford, Maitland and Cessnock. You'll just need to add a (slightly pricey) bus pass to your ticket.
