BUDBURST Buses AND OTHER TRANSPORT OPTIONS
Budburst buses
Don't want to have to worry about driving this Budburst? Budburst hop on hop off buses are the easiest way to journey around the region come festival weekend. This year we will be running smaller buses to more wineries, delivering you directly to cellar doors around the Macedon Ranges. The hop on hop off buses allow you to enjoy flexibility and explore at your own pace. Buses will be moving wine lovers between Budburst festival sites on Saturday only.
Tickets to board one of the Budburst buses are only $89 and include:
- Saturday bus ticket
- Weekend festival pass (for entry into the festival on Saturday AND Sunday).
This will allow you to venture out for a drive on Sunday to further explore the rolling hills and vines of the Macedon Ranges Wine Region.
Bus routes will be operating on a hop-on hop-off system with frequent buses allowing you to navigate between 5+ vineyards with 8+ wineries per loop! YOU MUST BE OVER 18 TO TRAVEL ON A BUDBURST BUS.
Bus tickets are only available to purchase online prior to the festival. and sales close 5pm Wednesday 13th November or until SOLD OUT, so don't miss out!
