Festa Italiana – October Long Weekend at Saddler’s Creek WinesStep into a little slice of Italy in the Hunter Valley this October long weekend. Festa Italiana is a vibrant two-day celebration of Italian wine, food, and music — a feast for all the senses.
Italian Wine Tasting
Your ticket includes a guided tasting of our Single Suitcase Italian varietals:
Fiano
Nero d’Avola
Montepulciano
Nebbiolo
Each wine showcases the best of Italy, crafted the Aussie way. Pair your tasting with a curated antipasti box (pre-book to avoid missing out) and let every bite and sip transport you to a sun-soaked Italian piazza.
Live Music in the Wine Garden
Saturday: Dance into the night with Zenith Funk, a 5-piece pop-funk band serving up Italian and Latino-inspired grooves. Expect lively rhythms, irresistible beats, and pure festa energy.
Sunday: Unwind with a soulful, intimate set from local favourites Pat McMahon & Isabella McGavin, teaming up for a special duo performance.
Italian Eats
Our Airstream kitchen will be serving authentic Italian soul food all weekend — handmade gnocchi, focaccia, fritto misto, and more. Plus, pre-order antipasti boards or BBQ Franco’s arrosticini skewers for the ultimate festa feast.
Why You’ll Love It
Whether you’re a wine lover, a foodie, or just chasing a long weekend escape, Festa Italiana is your chance to sip, savour, and celebrate the best of Italy without leaving the Hunter Valley.
✨ Limited tickets available. Book now, pre-order your antipasti, and join us for a weekend of Italian wine, live music, and unforgettable vibes.
