Coordinated by the Wine Innovation Cluster, a partnership of the four leading Australian grape and wine research agencies, Crush is hosted in the years not containing an Australian Wine Industry Technical Conference (AWITC). This year’s event will take place on Wednesday, 28 October 2026 at the Adelaide Convention Centre.

The Crush symposium is an opportunity for researchers, technical staff, academics, and students to share the latest knowledge in grape and wine science in Australia. The symposium offers a unique networking opportunity and the potential to develop industry and research collaborations.

Dinner is included with your registration. Pre-dinner drinks will be served after the final session, followed by an exquisite two-course dinner.

If you would like to get your brand in front of some of Australia’s leading minds in grape and wine science at the next event, please contact the WIC Executive Officer (WICEO@awri.com.au).
