For the love of New Zealand Wine
Winetopia 2025
There’s a lot to love about New Zealand wine. The rise of quality wine production has had a measurable impact on New Zealand‘s economy, international reputation and even our landscapes. Wine has been a real success story and the NZ Winegrowers 2023 Annual Report shows exports on the rise.
Winetopia represents a significant promotion for New Zealand Wine in the North Island's two largest cities. With a high profile marketing campaign commencing in March, thousands of wines lovers and vino curious make an annual pilgrimage to the biggest collection of pop-up cellar doors from around the country.
The Winetopia Story
Starting in 2016 as a proud showcase of our wine scene, Winetopia has become New Zealand’s largest annual wine tasting event series, engaging thousands of consumers and trade each year.
Backed by a comprehensive marketing and PR campaign, Winetopia is on a mission to foster a deeper appreciation and connection with the best of New Zealand wine.
At a time when local consumption trends may be shifting, we’re raising our glasses higher than ever — because we know the truth: New Zealand produces some of the most extraordinary wines on the planet.
Winetopia more than an event, it’s a celebration — a vibrant stage where the best of our wine world comes to life. Under one roof, visitors connect with pioneers, discover hidden gems, and taste the wines that have proudly put New Zealand on the global map.

“Winetopia is the single wine event that brings the entire New Zealand wine community together under one roof. No matter a wineries geographic location, specialist varietal or their production size we’re all on the same floor connecting with the consumer. The opportunity to taste, sell, market and network is exceptional. Rain or shine Winetopia delivers with excellent centrally located indoor venues that capture the essence of each host city. The MC’s and guest speakers are some of New Zealand’s finest wine critics and palates who do a fantastic job of keeping the mainstage alive and consumers informed.”
