Peninsula Vinehop Festival

Peninsula VineHop Festival celebrates and showcases the incredible cool-climate wines, craft beer, cider and spirits produced on the stunning Mornington Peninsula.

The first VineHop, held in 2017, was designed to include beer and cider—not just a wine festival.

Peninsula Vinehop Festival 2024 Dates, Lineup, Schedule, Tickets

Set across seven stunning Mornington Peninsula venues, VineHop showcases over 30 local craft drink producers, all offering tastings of their favourite products. Sample craft beers, seltzers and ciders, boutique vodka, gin, whisky and rum, along with cool climate wines.

Add to that live music, DJs, food trucks and various transport options (which make getting around easy!), and you’ve got an epic day out that will rival any Melbourne music festival.

Held across multiple venues each year, the festival is not only about the drinks—live music and DJs keep the party vibes high throughout the day, and shuttle buses make it easy for festival-goers to move from venue to venue.

VineHop Saturday is an 18+ event and has an unbeatable, lively atmosphere!

VineHop is an all-weather, outdoor event. You may need to bring a hat, sunnies, sunscreen, an umbrella, coat, rain jacket and gumboots. We’ve had all sorts of weather in previous years, and attendees have had a great time regardless! Who honestly knows what the weather will be like in November!
