Got a big group?
Or prefer your own bus and want to keep you & your mates together for the day? You can choose to book a Private Bus, which includes pick-up and return to your selected location (metropolitan Melbourne or the Mornington Peninsula). Plus you get to visit 2-4 venues of your choice during your eight-hour hire. You do not have to follow the North, South or Hub-to-Hub Shuttle routes.
Bus sizes are 11 seats, 24 seats and 57 seats. A GA Ticket also needs to be booked for each person.
These buses must be booked through the VineHop website. When booking, you must select your pick-up and drop-off location and time, and the venues and order in which you would prefer to visit them (we will do our best to accommodate your venue order preferences). These details must be entered when booking but can be updated until 30 September 2023. Full payment is required when booking a private bus.
Booking your own private bus
If you are a group of 11 or fewer, you can arrange your own private bus/car and driver. Your driver cannot be a patron attending the festival. Each person attending the festival must purchase a GA Ticket.
Your driver must drop you off at and pick you up from each venue – they are not permitted to park at any venue (other than the Festival Hub @ The Briars). Your driver must follow all directions from VineHop traffic personnel.
If you have a group of 12 or more people, you must book one of the VineHop bus options (Private Bus or Shuttle Bus).
