A celebration of NSW Excellence designed with the customer experience at its heart

Set in the picturesque surrounds of Centennial Vineyard in Bowral, Horizontal Festival is more than just a food and wine celebration—its part concert, part degustation menu, part art show and part wine, craft beer & distillery tasting – it’s a curated sensory journey.

Across two unforgettable days, Saturday 4 and Sunday 5 October 2025, guests will discover the richness of NSW regional produce, paired not only with world-class wine, beer and cocktails, but also with art, design, music, and culture.
