Wine not your thing? (Said no one ever) 2018 will see the biggest line up of alternative bevvies – start with a visit to the Gage Roads Brewing Co. Beer Garden who will be pouring their award-winning ales from Freo,WA, pop over to the Archie Rose Gin bar where you can indulge in a curated menu of premium gin cocktails including the Island Spritz or visit the Pimms Garden bar to indulge in a refreshing Pimms Cocktail.

A short saunter up to the highest point of the island will bring you to the ‘Unwined with Cellarmasters’ chill-out zone. Vibing with all the festival feels, this is a special place to relax and soak in the island’s best views while enjoying award-winning wines.
