Celebrate 20 Years of Music, Community and Magic at Fleurieu Folk Festival!

For two decades, Fleurieu Folk Festival has brought musicians, families and friends together in one of Australia’s friendliest festival communities.

Nestled in the picturesque township of Willunga on South Australia’s beautiful Fleurieu Peninsula, the Festival returns for three unforgettable days of outstanding music, creativity, connection and fun. As South Australia’s largest folk music festival, it’s renowned for its welcoming atmosphere, passionate community and exceptional entertainment.

This year’s festival features more than 40 artists from Australia and around the world, presenting an exciting mix of Folk, Celtic, Australiana, Country, Blues, Americana, World Music, and more. We’re proud to present an outstanding line-up of headline artists including The Bushwackers (NSW), Edwina Hayes (UK), Austral (VIC), The Sweet Sorrows (Ireland/SA), Gleny Rae Virus (NT), The Cartwheels (VIC), Kris Mizzi (VIC) and Those Folk (USA/QLD). New for 2026 is our exciting Home-Grown Stage, celebrating the incredible talent of local Fleurieu musicians.

The festival experience extends well beyond the concert stages. Bring your instrument and become part of the festival with interactive workshops, dance sessions, spontaneous jam circles and relaxed blackboard concerts.
