CheeseFest 2026

Settle in for a weekend devoted to Australia’s finest fromage. CheeseFest returns to Rundle Park, bringing together almost 100 artisan cheesemakers, food producers, winemakers, brewers and distillers for two days of tasting, discovering and indulging.

Wander the stalls, meet the makers behind exceptional Australian cheeses, and enjoy free tastings at participating producers. Live music, cooking demonstrations with personalities including Miguel Maestre, and plenty of cheese-themed experiences round out the program. Entry is free for children under 12, with dedicated kids’ entertainment to keep younger visitors happy.

Three ticket tiers are available, from the no-fuss Cheese Curious pass at $29 to the express-entry Cheese Addict option with signature glass and limited-edition tote.
