From vineyard long lunches to fireside feasts and chef-led dining experiences, these standout events capture the heart (and flavour) of the Fleurieu Food Festival. These are the ones locals rave about — and they’re worth planning your month around.

Farm, Forage & Field

Dig into the roots of flavour with hands-on experiences that celebrate where food comes from. From farm tours and olive grove walks to cheese-making demos, foraging workshops and long harvest feasts—these events invite you to slow down and reconnect with the land that feeds us.

Sip & Savour

Raise a glass to the region’s finest drops. From winemaker dinners and blending workshops to cellar door collaborations, brewery tastings and spirit flights—these events celebrate the craft, character and creativity behind every pour. Taste your way through the Fleurieu with events made for slow sipping and big flavour.

Gather & Graze

Laid-back, delicious and made to be shared. From fire-side feasts and picnics in the vines to food truck gatherings and casual communal tables, these events are all about good food, easy company and beautiful places. Perfect for families, friends, and anyone who loves a relaxed bite with a Fleurieu view.

Mastery & Makers

Step behind the scenes with the region’s food artisans and creators. These hands-on events give you the chance to learn from the best—whether it’s mastering sourdough, blending coffee, styling the perfect plate, or preserving the season’s harvest. Come curious, leave inspired.

Culture, Connection & Wellbeing

Food is more than what we eat—it’s how we connect. These events invite you to experience culture, story and place through a deeper lens. Think bush tucker walks, storytelling dinners, wellness gatherings and culturally-led food journeys that nourish both body and spirit.
