About this venue
Mount Duneed Estate is a winery and event venue surrounded by vineyards, rolling hills and an olive grove in the Geelong area. Its rustic yet refined architecture, spacious Barrel Hall and outdoor areas create a distinctive setting for concerts, private celebrations and other events. Flexible indoor spaces can accommodate events for up to 500 guests, while the estate's outdoor grounds are also used for larger live music experiences.
The experience combines wine, dining and the relaxed atmosphere of a working winery estate. Visitors can enjoy the Barrel Hall Restaurant, cellar door and several social spaces, while the combination of indoor and outdoor areas allows layouts to vary according to the type of event. For concerts and special events, facilities, entrances and audience zones may be arranged differently depending on the individual production.
Mount Duneed Estate is located at 65 Pettavel Road, Geelong, Australia. The estate is accessed directly from Pettavel Road, and major events commonly use designated parking areas and clearly marked entry gates within the property, so visitors should check the arrival instructions issued for their specific event or ticket.

About the city
Geelong, Victoria’s second-largest city, has developed into an appealing destination for sporting fixtures, concerts and cultural events beside Corio Bay. GMHBA Stadium within the Kardinia Park precinct is the city’s principal venue for major sporting occasions and selected concerts, while Geelong Arena hosts indoor sports and entertainment programmes, and Geelong Arts Centre expands the offering with theatre, music and performing arts. The compact city centre, restaurants, bars and varied accommodation make it easy to combine an event visit with a short break in this lively part of Victoria.
The city has a well-organised bus and rail network managed by Public Transport Victoria. V/Line trains on the Geelong Line connect Geelong with Southern Cross Station in Melbourne, while Geelong Station is the main railway arrival point for the city centre and waterfront. South Geelong Station is particularly convenient for reaching the Kardinia Park precinct and GMHBA Stadium, while North Geelong Station and local bus routes make it easier to continue towards the city’s northern districts and Geelong Arena. Avalon Airport is the closest airport to Geelong, while Melbourne Airport provides additional international and domestic arrival options.
Before or after an event, visitors can walk through Waterfront Geelong beside Corio Bay, visit Eastern Beach Reserve and Cunningham Pier, or relax in the Geelong Botanic Gardens. Little Malop Street is the city’s cultural and dining precinct, with restaurants, bars, street art and performance spaces. Geelong’s historical character can be explored at the National Wool Museum and among the old stone buildings of the city centre, while the paths beside the Barwon River offer a quieter conclusion to a day filled with sport, music or other events.
