Thank you to our 2026 North East Food and Wine Festival event sponsors
 

Dal Zotto Wines

Dal Zotto Wines is a family-owned King Valley winery and the pioneers of Prosecco in Australia. Founded in 1987 by Otto and Elena Dal Zotto, the family planted Australia’s first Prosecco vines in 1999, helping introduce Aussies to the joy of this much-loved Italian varietal.

Today, second generation, Michael and Christian Dal Zotto continue to craft premium Italian-inspired wines that celebrate family, food and the relaxed spirit of Italian living. Known for their vibrant wines, warm hospitality and love of bringing people together, Dal Zotto invites festivalgoers to raise a glass, enjoy Aperitivo and Start With Dal Zotto at this year’s North East Food and Wine Festival.

Dal Zotto Wines is proud to be the festival's 2026 Major Sponsor, so join them at the Main Stage grass area for good times, great wine and a taste of la dolce vita, King Valley style.

Pizzini Wines

The Pizzini story is a coming-together of their roots in far northern Italy and their home in the fertile undulations of the King Valley. 

For more than 30 years their wine has been more than a drink… it’s their culture. It brings people together to slow down and revel in each other’s company. At Pizzini, wine is poured, stories are told and the volume is loud. Here, they connect with what’s important.

Pizzini is proud return as the Wine Promenade sponsor and excited to promote the diverse range of quality wineries from across the Border and North East region.

The Thirsty Devil Brewery

Behind the beer taps are four local guys sharing their love of all things beer and local produce. 

While beer may be their main drawcard, they also have a great range of in-house produced spirits, delicious Vodka RTDs available on tap, a mouth-watering cocktail list and beer-infused festival fare to get excited about.

At the home of The Thirsty Devil Brewery in South Albury, you can expect a relaxing vibe, and, as a sponsor of NEFWF, their festival Beer Garden is no different. A relaxed vibe, all the yummy stuff and a chilled day out with mates.
