Willunga Recreation Park welcomes all chilli lovers to join them for their annual Chilli Fest. There is something for everyone inside Festival Hall, with 19 stall holders selling chilli produce including oils, sauces and even desserts! There will also be stallholders dedicated to chilli inspired décor and crafts sold throughout the weekend.

After shopping, enjoy a cooking demonstration or two, where you can learn more about the origin of chillies locally and around the world from local Fleurieu chilli experts including Jackie of Fleurieu Food and Wine. Relax with a variety of spicy foods from food trucks including tacos and burgers, as well as meat free options, while listening to live, local music.

There will also be an inaugural Hot Sauce Contest suited for a variety of spice levels. Entrants have come far and wide from across the country, with the finalists being judged by local celebrities Andy Clappis from Our Place on Willunga Hilland Norma of Whites Valley Jalapeños.

Tickets are $10 per person, and children under 16 are free. Ticket proceeds go to fundraising for the Willunga Recreation Park.
