Private progressive dining · Regional Victoria
Private progressive dining built around the people who grow, make and serve. Discover a region through seasonal food, wine and the stories behind each course.
Your company. A new setting with every course.
Our first experience is now available in the Yarra Valley.
Why The Makers’ Circuit exists
The people who grow,
make and serve.
We built this to bring the stories of Victoria’s producers to the people tasting their work.
Farmers, winemakers, cheesemakers and chefs make decisions about soil, season and ingredients that shape every mouthful. The Makers’ Circuit gives those people and their craft a place at the centre of the experience.
Local, seasonal and sustainable produce is the starting point: what a region grows, how its makers work with it, and the care they bring to the land. We want you to leave with more than a memory of a good meal, with a closer connection to where it came from.
Progressive dining brings it together. The meal moves between venues, each sharing another part of the region through its food, wine and stories.

Good to know
The Makers’ Circuit creates private progressive dining experiences in regional Victoria, built around the people who grow, make and serve. The meal moves between venues so guests can understand the local produce, craft and stories behind each course, with dining and transport arranged.
Progressive dining is a meal enjoyed across different venues, with each stop contributing another part of the experience. A change of setting brings a new course, a different perspective and another connection to the region.
Both describe a meal that moves between venues. A progressive dinner usually takes place in the evening; progressive dining describes the format more broadly. Check the chosen experience for its schedule and itinerary.
Progressive dining puts the meal at the centre of the experience. You move between venues for different parts of the meal, understanding the region through its food as well as its wine. Each experience page sets out the itinerary and inclusions so you can compare what matters to you.
Local, seasonal and sustainable produce is central to our ethos. We value food rooted in its region, menus that follow the season, and care for how ingredients are grown and made. The experience is a way to understand that relationship between the place, the producer and the plate.
Each experience is booked privately for your own party, with no other guests added. Group sizes are listed on the individual experience page. A private booking does not mean exclusive use of the restaurants.
Each circuit explores a particular region through its food, wine and producers. Browse our experiences for the region, meeting point, transport arrangements and itinerary available to book.
