The Barossa Vintage Festival is a celebration of food, wine, arts and heritage like no other. With traditions passed down through generations, and abundant produce from the soil and the makers, the community looks to share this with others in the community, and the many visitors that come from Adelaide and from interstate.

Autumn Vines
There are numerous events and dinners at the Vintage Festival, many with an enviable (but fair) price tag. But there are also many FREE events and activities available for families and friends alike so that the community of the festival can be enjoyed by all.
