Penfolds has joined the 2026 Formula 1 Qatar Airways Australian Grand Prix as an event supporter.

Across the four days at Albert Park Grand Prix Circuit in March 5-8, a selection of Penfolds wines will be served in premium hospitality venues including in the American Express Lounge.

Guests will also enjoy a curated Penfolds restaurant pairing and an elevated VIP Grange experience designed to celebrate Penfolds’ most renowned wine.
