The 2021 program saw guests get lost in the bustling port city and the Ferguson Valley, both of which came alive with more than 20 unique events made for lovers of great food and wine, craft beer, live music, family fun and more.

 Events ranged from long table dinners in barrel halls and rocking hoedowns, to vertical tastings, wine workshops, boozy brunches and live music events.

 With 22 events spread across 16 venues, many of which were sold out, the 2022 program is looking to be bigger and better!

 Festival organisers AHOY Management said they’re excited for the return of the festival, which saw approximately 4000 attendances across the 16 venues who took part. 

 Joint Director Brianna Delaporte said, ‘we encourage any local businesses with an idea bubbling away to get in touch.’ 

 ‘We’re here to assist local businesses in realising their exciting ideas in a safe, collaborative festival environment.’

 The festival, which is supported by Tourism WA, City of Bunbury, Shire of Dardanup, Australia’s South West and Ferguson Valley Marketing, aims to drive new visitors to the Bunbury Geographe and provide support and economic benefits for local businesses. 

 ‘The 2021 festival’s benefits for the region stretched beyond the 4 days of the festival, with the 3-month marketing campaign prior to the event reaching more than 600,000 people,’ Ms Delaporte said.
