The Royal Agricultural Society of New South Wales stands as a marker of our nation’s evolution and agricultural history. It has fostered progress through competition and education since its foundation in 1822.

The Sydney Royal Wine Show plays an integral role within this legacy. As Australia’s oldest wine show, this year in 2026, it celebrates its 200th anniversary.

I am delightful to have Sally Evans join me today, as a board member, to speak to the show’s lineage and enduring importance.

These days, it seems in order to survive in the hospitality game as an owner, you need to operate as a group, even a small one. But growing from one to three venues takes a lot of structure and certain skillsets, so how do you do it?

Brett Sergeant (Sunday Co) joins us to talk about the build of their exciting third venue, Vito’s, to open later this year.

It’s an absolute joy to catch up with former guests, especially when they have such positive news to share.
