Brisbane’s most luxurious wine experience is returning for the fourth year. On Saturday, July 12, the iconic Frangipani Ballroom at Emporium Hotel South Bank is getting its grape on, hosting an unforgettable afternoon of premium wine discovery.
This year’s all-inclusive event brings together a handpicked collection of over 50 of the best wineries from across the globe. With everything from refreshing Chardonnay from the vineyards of New Zealand and strong Napa wines to the delicate hills of Italy, The Reserve Wine Expo 2025 is your passport to the world’s greatest wine, all without ever leaving Brisbane.
The expo is offering an All Access pass, which means every ticket grants the opportunity to sample multiple wines and enjoy a three-hour tasting journey, featuring standout drops

And, for the first time ever, this year guests also get a say! You can cast your vote in the inaugural People’s Choice Wine Award, which will award attendees’ favourite vino. Plus, the day before The Reserve Wine Expo, on Friday, you can choose to elevate your expo experience with the optional Friday Night Dinner, a decadent prelude at Firma Italian before the main event, pairing Western Australian wines with a bespoke truffle-inspired menu.
