To mark the 50th anniversary of the National Wine Show of Australia, the nation’s capital will host a four-day festival from 12-15 June, set to become an annual tourism event – the National Wine Festival of Australia.

The festival will kick off with the 2025 National Wine Show of Australia trophy presentation dinner in the Great Hall of Australian Parliament House, followed by three days of wine tastings, masterclasses, themed dinners and special events at the Hyatt Hotel Canberra.

More than 900 award-winning wines, including every entrant in the 2025 National Wine Show, will be opened for tasting during the festival. In a premium masterclass featuring the just-announced 2025 National Wine Show trophy winners, National Wine Show chair of judges, Matt Harrop, will reveal what Australia’s best wine assessors look for in an award-winning wine and examine the characteristics of this year’s winners.

Festival tickets are now available here.
