The Runholder Presents: A Boutique Festival of Wine, Gin, Food & Music
With Hollie Smith, Sweet Mix Kids & The Beat Girls
Join us on Saturday 15th November under a canopy of trees for an unforgettable afternoon that blends flavour, sound and celebration. Set against the stunning backdrop of Martinborough’s rolling hills and vines, this curated gathering brings together our favourite makers, movers, and shakers - ready to pour, plate, and play their hearts out.
Sip iconic artisan wines, swirl small-batch gin and savour signature gourmet bites by culinary legends.
On stage we welcome the soulful stylings and powerhouse vocals of Hollie Smith, the retro glam and infectious energy of The Beat Girls, and the genre-spinning magic of Sweet Mix Kids, interspersed with sets from DJ Takas. The only thing smoother than the wine is the soundtrack.
Our Saturday session promises an elevated, intimate atmosphere - where the wine flows, the beats drop, and the good vibes carry you through an afternoon of dancing, right into sunset.
With invited friends: Martinborough Vineyard, Te Kairanga, Escarpment, Ata Rangi, Schubert, Palliser Estate, Halite Wines, Lighthouse Gin, Mt Difficulty, Vavasour, Martinborough Brewery, Antipodes Water, The Crab Shack, Wharekauhau Estate, Shed 5, SOUL Bar & Bistro and Martin Bosley's Oyster Saloon.
