After being postponed twice, Pyrmont Festival will finally get to commemorate its 10th Anniversary; the locals are ready to party and everyone is invited. Entry is absolutely FREE!
There is nothing more soothing for the soul than being under an Autumn sun, breathing in fresh ocean air, hearing laughter and music, and feasting on nature’s harvest. That’s why Pyrmont Festival is one of Sydney’s favourite outdoor food and wine events.

What do you do when bushfires hand you smoke-tainted grapes? For winemaker Bryan Martin and brewer Topher Boehm, you make smoky, wild, fruit-forward beer.
The friends launched their Bright Side brews at the weekend, made with organic grapes smoke-tainted by the 2020 bushfires at Martin s Ravensworth Wines vineyard in Murrumbateman, near Canberra. Bryan puts so much energy into growing his fruit every year, for an entire vintage to be cast out as cow feed or compost would have been heartbreaking, says Boehm, co-owner of Wildflower Brewing & Blending in Marrickville.
