Pyrmont Food Wine Festival

The Pyrmont Food and Wine Festival is a free two-day event held each May at Pirrama Park on the Pyrmont foreshore, featuring more than 30 wineries, breweries and distilleries from NSW wine regions alongside food trucks, live music and art. For groups travelling from the CBD, Inner West, North Shore, Eastern Suburbs and Western Sydney, a private charter bus gets everyone there and home safely without the parking difficulty or the public transport scramble. Sydney Charter Bus Australia provides group transport to Pyrmont events year-round.
