BlenheimFest 2017

Hillside camping in the heart of the Clare Valley, amidst rolling hills, luscious vineyards and drystone walls…..the warm setting sun, plenty of cold beer….all in the shadow of a lovingly restored, 150 year old bluestone building!

What could possibly make this sound any better… if you were thinking 20+ amazing international, interstate and local SA bands, 1500 friends, two stages, a hay bale amphitheatre and a massive Gum tree….then read on to find out more about BlenheimFest.

Shopping at Trumpet Lane

BlenheimFest also has a market area for lots of shopping fun! Trumpet Lane is the 100m long road that links the rest of the camp site to the main area. This busy thoroughfare has now become the birth place of the Trumpet Lane Markets, smack in the middle of the two stages. With a central communal lounge, patrons can relax after browsing the wide array of stalls, including herbal teas, chai, face painting, henna and hair wraps, goodies to eat just to name a few!
