For those looking for a bit of extra pampering, head to the Maude VIP tent, this area includes complimentary wine served throughout the day from local legends Maude Wines and plenty of delicious Canape’s served up by The Platter Share.

Enjoy a relaxed atmosphere at your table under guaranteed shade, dip off to the private luxury loos and enjoy being just close enough to the stage to enjoy the music while still being able to chat about your new favourite wines.
