LET’S CELEBRATE WINE
A WEEKEND TO CELEBRATE OUR REGION’S FINEST WINEMAKERS
Step Into the Heart of Tasmania’s Wine Country
Mark your calendars! From 28 February to 2 March 2025, experience the magic of Tasmania’s renowned southern wine regions. This festival opens the cellar doors to 37+ exceptional wineries across the Coal River Valley, Derwent Valley, Huon Valley & d’Entrecasteaux Channel, and the South East. From Hobart, get an insider’s look into the people and pristine environment that define Tasmanian winemaking.
A Festival Like No Other
Unlike traditional wine festivals, Southern Open Vineyards features world-famous producers alongside wineries unknown outside of Tasmania. Wander through the vineyards, chat with winemakers, and taste wines where they are created. From hidden boutique gems to award-winning estates, this event is your chance to uncover the secrets of Tasmania’s wine story.
