Events in Mudgee

For anyone who enjoys great wine, beautiful music or has a penchant for the arts, Mudgee regularly hosts large events such as A Day on the Green, Wings, Wheels, Wine & Wool, and the Wine Festival, to name a few, and holds seven race meetings a year that prove extremely popular.

Mudgee's weekend markets are quickly becoming a firm favourite, with a different market held on each Saturday of the month; the third Saturday featuring the increasingly popular Farmers Markets by Mudgee Fine Foods. Here you can tempt all the senses with their array of produce ranging from farm-fresh fruit and vegies to cupcakes, organic pork, wine, home-made jams, preserves and tapenades, fresh bread and more. Sign the kids up for cooking classes, and follow up the next day with a Farm Walk, where you visit the producers and get down to the grass roots level of food production. If you’ve ever wondered exactly what ‘free range’ means, wanted to get in touch with the seasons, or show the kids exactly where their food comes from, this is simply a must.

September's Wine and Food Festival in the Mudgee Region is two weeks packed with a huge variety of events, entertainment, degustation dinners, special wine tastings, performances, art exhibitions and much, much more.

The culinary event of the wine celebration calendar would have to be “Go Grazing” — a food and wine matching evening where Mudgee’s finest vineyards and cellar doors go head to head to perfect the marrying of nose and palate.
