Winefest 2023

ASTRA Museum, an institution whose actions are made possible by the funding of Sibiu County Council, is co-organizer and host of Vinfest, 6th edition, the only event in Sibiu that highlights traditional wine from Romania and beyond. Vinfest will take place from 7-9 July in the open-air museum in Dumbrava Sibiu. At Vinfest Fifteen wineries and wine producers (50 flavours) and nine food trucks will participate, preparing traditional Romanian, Italian, Greek, German, Spanish and Serbian food. Also in the same setting there will be interactive workshops for children, branded Serious Fun (fun, thinking, logic and skill games, archery, treasure hunt) and concerts & DJ Session for all museum visitors.

Top wineries are coming or returning (and) this year at Vinfest, in the ASTRA Museum! They are Chateau Vartely, Domeniile Franco Române, Villa Vinea, Domeniul Apoldium, Jidvei, La Salina, Lechburg, Via Viticola, Caii de la Letea, Hamangia, Gramofon, Cricova, Domeniul Apoldia Maior, Gorgandin, Domeniile Averești and Wine Not.

Winefest 2023 will also mean lots of wine tasting this year. The first one will take place on Friday 7 July from 18.00 - 20.00 at the Multicultural Museum Pavilion in the ASTRA Museum, for charity. Specifically, a fundraiser for Sara, a little girl who needs €4,700 for a series of operations so she can lead a normal life. This after she found out immediately after birth that she was suffering from total left brachial plexus paresis. She has already had one operation, but two more - on her hand and leg - are needed to restore her mobility. The operations cost €4,700, which includes medical costs, not including accommodation and transport to Barcelona, where the operation would be performed.

The artistic programme at Winefest 2023 will be supported by Raluca & Balkanic Project, Bosquito and Argatu
