Waipara Valley Wine and food festival

Due to a significantly bad forecast of the next six days and the fact that this is an outdoor event, the Waipara Valley Wine & Food Festival has been cancelled, with regard to the comfort and practicality of attendees, entertainment, stallholders and the venue.


All tickets purchased will be refunded. Please contact the outlet you purchased your ticket from for more information.

 


Every year we celebrate the upcoming harvest with a festival. After the earthquake damaged the Glenmark church last year, the festival has moved to a new home in another stunning Waipara Valley environment.

Over 20 wineries and many local food producers will come together in the beautiful Waipara Valley setting of the Mud House Winery and Cafe, serenaded by:

  • Join us for a wonderful day of wine, food and music. Observe cooking demonstrations, and be encouraged to make your own Waipara Valley platters with ingredients from the food producers themselves.

  • The festival is located just 50 minutes north of Christchurch at the Mud House Winery and Cafe, 780 Glasnevin Road, State Highway 1, Waipara.
