Pyrmont Festival 2014

Overview

Got the itch to have a boozy weekend getaway without the time or the means to actually get all that far? Look no further, for in May returns the Pyrmont Festival, boasting a packed bill of wine tastings, art exhibits and dining experiences and building Pyrmont's profile as a creative, cultural and dining precinct.

The festival highlight is set to be a two-day outdoor event at Pirrama Park (17-18 May), with live music, cooking demos and art installations. Taste over 120 different wines and sample delicious morsels at the 50+ food stalls, all while having the opportunity to meet and greet the makers of each fine drop.

There are, however, eight more days of smaller festivities on top of that. A fusion of city and country, Pyrmont Festival highlights the best of both the Pyrmont and Mudgee regions. It features over 50 dynamic restaurants, bars, winemakers and artists, along with names such as Huntington Estate, Burrundulla Vineyard and Lowe Wines. From May 16-25, check out the Mudgee Sculpture Garden and Progressive Dining Walk, as well as some pretty special dining experiences at the likes of Flying Fish and Blue Eye Dragon.
