Fleurieu Folk Festival

Our 20th Fleurieu Folk Festival will be held on 9th -11th October 2026

Nestled in the charming, vineyard-draped town of Willunga on the Fleurieu Peninsula, Fleurieu Folk Festival is South Australia's biggest, warmest, and most irresistible folk music bash! Dive into a whirlwind celebration where world-class musicians ignite the stage with everything from foot-stomping traditional and contemporary folk to soulful Celtic melodies, plus Americana vibes, bluegrass twang, and world music.

But the magic doesn't stop at the main stages — you can jump into hands-on workshops, dance instruction, spontaneous jam sessions, and laid-back blackboard concerts. Revel in musical theatre, poetry slams, and children's entertainment. Savor local feasts from buzzing food and market stalls, and discover music lovers strumming, singing, and collaborating in every hidden nook and cranny. Grab your instrument (or just your voice) and join the fun!

And the Festival wouldn’t be the same without a market — stalls, marquees and food trucks adding to the rhythm of the weekend. From something delicious to eat to something unique to take home, wander through the market village to discover food, drink and handmade goods, all within the Festival.

So, whether you're a die-hard folkie or a curious newcomer, there's a rhythm here calling your name. Come make memories that echo long after the last note fades!
