A new 15-month wall calendar is set to become the must-have gift for Australian foodies, wine lovers and travellers.
The Australian Food & Wine Festivals calendar lists more than 100 events from January 2026 to March 2027.
“I created this calendar to celebrate Australia’s incredible food and wine culture and to encourage more domestic tourism to our world-class wine regions,” says Melbourne-based entrepreneur Elizabeth Hollingsworth and founder of Australian Map Gifts (formerly known as Palatable Tea Towels).
“With over 100 events across every state, territory and season, it shows just how much there is to experience on our doorstep and I hope it inspires Australians to discover their next favourite festival.”
Festival listings range from Adelaide’s Cellar Door Fest to Effervescence Tasmania and include boutique wine celebrations, harvest festivals, seafood feasts and truffle hunts.
Alongside the monthly event listings, each month spotlights an iconic Australian wine region—from Margaret River to the Mornington Peninsula—with an original hand-illustrated watercolour map by Ballarat artist Caroline Keys.
With its month-at-a-glance format, space for personal notes and trip planning and sustainable Melbourne-made production on 100 per cent recycled paper, the calendar is a thoughtful gift that sparks holiday planning, evokes fond memories and supports local tourism all year long, adds Hollingsworth.
“It’s about bringing back people’s Australian travel memories, inspiring them to return because they’ve fallen in love with a place and helping those destinations ‘come back’ financially through increased tourism.”
