Willunga Almond Blossom Festival

By on May 17, 2018 in

As the Willunga Almond Blossom Festival moves into its 49th year, this festival has gone all out to present a bigger and brighter event with activities for people of all ages. Of course, it wouldn’t be an almond blossom festival without plenty of almond-related activities. At the Almond Hub, visitors can enjoy cooking demonstrations by local chefs, talk to authors of almond-related books, browse the historic display of newspaper articles, stories, ball gowns, and other memorabilia and purchase tasty Willunga almonds. Kids can follow the Children’s Almond Trail (which includes a colouring competition), name the almond tree knocker on the oval, and receive a heart shaped tin full of almonds. And be there on Sunday to enter the almond cracking competition – all ages can take part.

In the Live Music marquee, you will see an eclectic range of artists over the two days, from Willunga High School drama students, to a Ukraine Dance group, Sisters of Abundance, Pulse Band Duo, Cool4kids and young performers such as Kylie Brice and Modern Day Riot. If music is not your scene, there are wild and noisy show rides, craft activities, market stalls, wood turning displays, pony rides and dog agility demonstrations, plus a visit from Radicool Reptiles. You might even meet a beautiful fairy – and be sure to see the fireworks display on Saturday night, which is always a highlight of the festival weekend.

No Willunga event is complete without a range of delicious food, wine and beer. Whether you want real ‘carnie food’, Greek Souvlaki, pizza, simple healthy snacks or Asian dishes, you will find them at the Willunga Almond Blossom Festival. Love at Thirst Sight Wine Bar will provide mulled wine and almond inspired cocktails, while Little Buddy Brewery offers their craft beer.

There is so much more to see and do, including the Almond Blossom Parade down High Street on Sunday morning.
