Christmas and New Years Opening Hours

Christmas and New Year Trading Hours for the Clare Valley.

The festive season in the Clare Valley is all about gathering with those you love and enjoying the simple pleasures.

Imagine a Christmas meal with fresh, local produce and wine, shared in the quiet of our countryside. Or start the New Year with a toast, surrounded by vineyards and open skies.

Visit our towns, which host special markets and events to bring in the holiday season. There’s always a friendly face ready to welcome you.

 

Our two local Visitor Information Centres have compiled a handy list of who will be open this Festive season. You can view & download these lists here:
