Overview

One of Sydney's most beloved wine events is going all out for its tenth edition — and you're invited to sip, snack and dance your way through it. Huge Moves 10 is landing at The International on Saturday, June 7, taking over all three levels of the sleek CBD hospitality venue for an afternoon of wine, food and music.

Curated by Joel Amos — the same mind behind Loose Lips and other vibe-heavy wine events — this massive cellar door-style tasting will bring together over 40 winemakers from near and far. They'll be pouring more than 150 natural and minimal-intervention wines across The Wine Bar and its sun-soaked Plaza, The Grill and the top-floor Panorama Bar from 2.30pm.

Confirmed names on the pour list include Giorgio De Maria Fun Wines, Lo-Fi Wines, Mosaique, Mallaluka, Crusher Wines, Captains of Trade, Harkham Wines, Pride of Lunatics, Wines of Lebanon and plenty more. As you sip, you'll be able to groove to sets from DJs Veda and Adi Toohey.

Food-wise, ATTENZIONE! — Redfern's Italian-leaning wine bar — will be taking over the kitchen at The Wine Bar, serving up snackable, wine-friendly bites perfect for wandering and munching. Feeling fancy? You can upgrade your ticket with the all-new Quick-Fire Lunch, a refined dining experience led by Executive Chef Joel Bickford and served in The Grill, where you'll be taken on a thoughtful two-course dining journey with matched wines in just 45 minutes.

Don't head home when the tasting wraps up — while the wines will stop pouring at 5.30pm, the party shifts upstairs to Panorama Bar half an hour later for a nostalgic Halfway Crooks reunion with DJ Levins and Captain Franco, who'll be bringing hip hop, throwbacks and rooftop views well into the evening.

"We're excited to be throwing Huge Moves' biggest-ever wine event at The International next month," says Amos. "The International is the perfect venue to bring together winemakers, food, music and community in the heart of the city."

Huge Moves 10 takes place at The International, 25 Martin Place, Sydney CBD, on Saturday, June 7. For more information, head to the event website.
