Orange Wine Festival offers over 40 vinous events

Orange is one of the prettiest, and liveliest wine regions in Australia, and is known for its quality cool-climate wines. 

One of the best times to visit the Central Western NSW hub is during the Wine Festival, which runs from Friday, October 16, to Sunday, October 25. 

That's 10 days encompassing over 40 events, promising innovative wine experiences and regional food and wine collaborations. 

The highlights include the opening night Night Markets in Robertson Park, Sip & Savour: The Ultimate Wine Tasting on Friday, October 23, and 2026 Orange Wine Show Trophy Masterclass. 

Or join Ross Hill Wines, Brangayne and Colmar Estate for the Pinnacle Wine Walk (above), an exclusive opportunity to explore the vineyards along Pinnacle Road. Wander through the vines, taste, and hear the stories behind each family winery.
