The Marlborough Wine and Food Festival, an annual celebration of exquisite wines and delectable cuisine, is embarking on a new chapter with a fresh venue and an enticing offer for local residents.
Wine Marlborough’s general manager, Marcus Pickens, has officially confirmed that the festival has secured the picturesque Renwick Domain as its venue for the next three editions. This decision ushers in a period of stability for the event, ensuring a remarkable setting for wine and food enthusiasts to revel in for years to come.
In conjunction with this exciting development, the festival organizers have unveiled a special “locals only” ticket offer that will be available for a limited time. These exclusive tickets, designed for the Marlborough community, are accessible from Monday through Friday this week. The offer applies to the 2024 festival, scheduled for February 10th.
Remarkably, these “locals only” tickets are priced at $60, providing a notable discount compared to the standard admission fee of $67.50. To avail themselves of this enticing offer, residents can visit the Blenheim i-Site, where these tickets will be on sale. In a first for the festival, tickets will also be obtainable through the Marlborough Wine and Food Festival website, with postcodes required to confirm eligibility.
This initiative not only celebrates the festival’s commitment to its local roots but also makes it more accessible to the community it proudly serves. It promises an extraordinary opportunity for Marlburians to enjoy the region’s world-class wines and culinary delights amidst the stunning backdrop of Renwick Domain.
The Marlborough Wine and Food Festival’s decision to embrace a new venue and extend a special invitation to locals underscores its dedication to providing an unforgettable experience while fostering a sense of community and shared celebration of Marlborough’s rich wine and food culture.
