Hunter Valley Uncorked at Balmoral – Sunday, 20th October 2019

The Hunter Valley is threatening to completely lose its cork at beautiful Balmoral. Enjoy the vibe, love the wine, savour the food and feel fine. 20 of the best producers from the Hunter will drink with you, well probably watch as you do, but they will share in a bit of banter as they decanter (if you’re lucky). Apart from the serious wine there will be family entertainment all served up on one Sydney’s largest and most scenic beach suburbs looking out across Sydney Harbour to the sea. It promises to be a corker of a day.

Manly Jazz Festival – Saturday, 5th October to Monday, 7th October 2019

The Manly Jazz Festival’s blend of great music and awesome scenery provides the non-essential impetus to make the voyage across the water to a faraway shore. Well, half an hour once you have lined up for your ticket. It’s a must to do if you are into Jazz, and pretty close even if you aren’t.

Norton Street Italian Festa – Sunday, 27th October 2019

The colourful Norton Street Italian Festa returns to a street called Norton in Sydney’s inner west. This year ‘Little Italy’ is going to town, actually it is staying precisely where it is but that’s not important right now, what is important is the music, the song, the dance, the coffee, the pizza, the gelato. Think Italian and you’ll find it somewhere among the numerous stalls and activities. There will also be lots of fun stuff for the small people and classic, vintage, contemporary and of course, sexy Italian cars, motorbikes and scooters.
