Laughter and Local Wine

There is something about the Yarra Valley in October that just feels right. The air starts to shift, the vines are looking healthy, and the urge to find a patch of grass and a decent glass of wine becomes impossible to ignore. This is exactly why Comedy in the Vines 2026 is worth marking in your calendar.

Running from the 22nd to the 25th of October, this four-day festival is a proper celebration of the good life. It’s not just a show; it’s a combination of stand-up comedy, live music, and local wine, all set against the backdrop of a vineyard.

The venue for this year’s run is CherryHill Orchards in Coldstream. It’s a beautiful spot on the Maroondah Highway, offering that perfect blend of open space and valley charm. You can picture it clearly: the sun dipping low over the orchards, a crisp glass in hand, and the sound of live music or a comedian’s punchline carrying across the rows of vines.

It is the kind of event that invites you to slow down. You come for the laughs, you stay for the music, and you settle in for the wine. Whether you are heading there for a quick afternoon session or making a proper weekend of it, the atmosphere is built around honest fun and great scenery.

Four days, plenty of laughs, and the valley at its best.
