A Glass of Palliser Pinot Noir by the Fire for the Greytown Festival of Christmas A Glass of Palliser Pinot Noir by the Fire for the Greytown Festival of Christmas

Friday 28 June - Saturday 26 July, 2025

Festival of Christmas | Greytown

Palliser is delighted to once again support the Greytown Festival of Christmas, which has grown over the last few years into an incredible, month-long festival for local families, and visitors to our region to enjoy.

In the depths of winter, whilst most people are staying inside watching Netflix, over in Greytown they’re donning Christmas jumpers, gathering around the outdoor braziers, sipping our Pinot Noir, and having some good old fashioned fun. Set to a backdrop of spectacular lighting, festive food and wine, events, night markets, workshops, beautiful displays, live entertainment and even snow, it’s a place to get together and create special memories.
