EAT SPAIN, DRINK SPAIN AT CANESS
Eat Spain Drink Spain, a nationwide celebration of Spanish food, wine and culture, arrives in Australia for the first time from 4 September to 4 October 2026, bringing a month of Spanish flavour and festivities.
As an official festival partner, CANESS is celebrating with our Spanish Wine Series, pouring daily, and Picoteo Sundays — a $60pp shared lunch inspired by Spain’s tradition of grazing and lingering over the table.
Plus, every glass of Spanish wine sipped or plate of Picoteo Sundays empanadas enjoyed brings you a chance to win a return trip to Spain.
