CheeseFest | Rundle Park/Kadlitpina | Adelaide | 18-19 Oct 2025

Australia’s original and biggest cheese festival is back in 2025.
The most snackable weekend of the year heads to Rundle Park/Kadlitpina with a melting pot of cheesemakers, great food, drinks and dancing this October.
CheeseFest is South Australia’s longest running and widely loved annual cheese-focussed culinary festival and they will be celebrating 20 years in 2025 with the biggest, boldest and most flavour-packed program yet.
Held at Kadlitpina, Rundle Park, CheeseFest 2025 will feature a record 100 stalls, bringing artisans from all regions of South Australia into the heart of Adelaide. Food icon, Matt Preston, will also once again be resuming his role as ‘Master of Fromage’ and joining in the festivities as he brings his signature flair, knowledge, and passion for local produce to take centre stage on the RAA cooking demonstration stage, sharing cheesey recipes, tips, and a healthy dose of entertainment.
New for 2025 is a chance for people to secure the best seat in house at the Brie.I.P Lounge presented by White Marquee. This chic, private cabana-style lounge will be available for four-hour packages and is perfect for groups of 4 – 8 that want a more luxe CheeseFest experience!

CheeseFest is an event for all ages, so take the family along to try the hottest cheese products from all of SA’s regions (plus some esteemed interstate cheesemakers), and wash it down with a drink or two while grooving to the live entertainment.
