New Indulge festival coming to Auckland

A new food, wine and design festival is coming to Auckland’s waterfront in March, with some of the country’s leading wineries set to take part.

Indulge will be held at Auckland’s Wynyard Point and Jellicoe Harbour over four days from 2-5 March, 2023. Renowned chefs, designers and restaurateurs, along with a range of New Zealand wineries, will bring local cuisine, wine and design together for the event.

Indulge has been created by the team behind the popular Urban Polo events in New Zealand and Singapore.

Urban Events Managing Director, Simon Wilson, says he is delighted to have so many quality brands involved, with wineries such as Bannockburn’s Akarua, Blenheim’s te Pā and Waiheke’s Cable Bay among those confirmed already.

“We always envisioned Indulge being an event that could both introduce Kiwis to new tastes and sounds, but also celebrate many of the tried and true,” says Wilson. “With this collection of wineries on board, we have both – some old favourites and some new ones that many people will not have come across before. It’s exciting.”

Other winery exhibitors include Two Rivers, Akarua, Hunting Lodge, Villa Maria, Waitiri Creek, The Uncommon NZ, Cable Bay, 495 Wine Direct and Mawhitipana Ridge Estate, with organisers saying more will be announced.

Indulge is expected to host around 20,000 people over the four days and has been created in partnership with NZME and is supported by Tourism New Zealand and Auckland Unlimited. GA, VIP and Corporate Hosting Tickets are on sale now.
