About BUDBURST 2024
Travel the winding country roads, venture behind the vines and lush box hedges, and immerse yourself in the picturesque mountain ranges that are the hallmark of the Macedon Ranges Wine region.
With local venues showcasing some of the best of the region from Friday night and wine tastings showcasing more than 20+ wineries, we don’t think there’s a better way to enjoy the cool wines and warm hearts of the Macedon Ranges than at Budburst.
Budburst weekend passes only $49!
Read below for more information about what to expect over the Budburst weekend.
Budburst Weekend
Saturday 16 & Sunday 17 November
10:00am-5:00pm
On Saturday and Sunday, you can travel independently around the Macedon Ranges’ winding country roads and picturesque mountain ranges or board one of the hop on hop off Budburst buses (see details below) to visit up to five wineries on two dedicated routes.
Festival sites will be open between 10am and 5pm, so settle in to meet the region’s family-owned, small-batch winemakers while enjoying tastings, curated menus featuring local produce, art shows, sculptor walks, live music and much more.
Budburst festival tickets $49 for the full weekend!
Budburst Buses
Saturday 16th November ONLY
Don't want to have to worry about driving this Budburst? On Saturday Budburst buses are the easiest way to journey around the region. This year we will be running smaller buses to deliver you directly to cellar doors around the Macedon Ranges.
Join us on-board one of our hop on hop off buses to enjoy a day of flexibility and exploration throughout the rolling hills and vines before you venture out for a drive on Sunday.
Tickets to board one of the Budburst buses are only $89 and include the bus ticket as well as a Budburst Weekend Festival Pass
