Pair’d Margaret River
Coming to the Margaret River Region from 19-22 November, Pair’d Margaret River is a world-class four-day wine and food celebration promising you a weekend of indulgence.
Pair’d Margaret River Region returns from 19–22 November 2026, bringing together four unforgettable days of wine, food, music and culture across the region’s beaches, forests, caves and vineyards.
Now in its third year, the award-winning festival will present more than 40 wine-led experiences, celebrating Margaret River’s world-class wine alongside internationally acclaimed chefs, musicians and local producers. Curated through the lens of a sommelier, Pair’d is proudly a “wine first” event, where every experience is thoughtfully paired with exceptional wines.
This year’s program features renowned chefs including Dave Pynt, Rodney Scott, Matt Abé, St. John, and ex-Noma chefs Ben Ing and Gus Steinhoffer Brandson, alongside legendary Austrian electronic duo Kruder & Dorfmeister, performing their only Australian shows at the Pair’d Beach Club.
Festival highlights include the Grand Tasting at Howard Park Wines, the exclusive History Makers Wine Dinner at Leeuwin Estate, Nature’s Table beneath the towering forest canopy, Ngilgi Reverie inside the ancient Ngilgi Cave, beachside dining at Meelup Beach, and intimate long lunches, live-fire feasts and immersive culinary experiences celebrating the flavours and landscapes of the Margaret River Region.
Recognised as the Silver winner in the Festival category at the 16th Eventex Awards, Pair’d continues to establish itself as one of Australia’s premier food and wine festivals.
Tickets go on sale Wednesday 1 July 2026 at 10am AWST. Visit www.pairdmargaretriver.com for the full program and bookings.
