F.A.W.C! Launch Party with Hawke's Bay Winemakers

We’re kicking off F.A.W.C!’s eighth year under the twinkling festoon lights at Black Barn Vineyards. Enjoy the celebrations as Hawke’s Bay wine makers & brewers pour some of the best local drops, while the legendary Orton's will serve freshly prepared seasonal bites. MC Jesse Mulligan will keep the evening on track, while you mix and mingle with friends and enjoy the sounds from decks as the DJ plays into the night.

$95 includes wine, beer & cider tastings matched to four small plates and entertainment
$15 return bus transfers from Napier, Hastings and Havelock North i-Sites

Brimming with exquisite fresh produce and world-class food and wine, it’s clear to see why Hawke’s Bay is hailed as an epicurean’s dream destination. It’s a tough job knowing where to start, so that’s why we created F.A.W.C! Food and Wine Classic – your one-stop culinary festival that brings together the best on offer from across the region. With 70+ events set in stunning locations over 10 glorious days, Summer F.A.W.C! is proving life doesn’t get better than this.
