Celebrate South Australia’s finest filmmakers under the stars in the Fleurieu

Who doesn’t love a summer night under the stars? Throw in great films, local wine, and delicious food, and you’ve got the perfect night out at the Fleurieu Film Festival in beautiful McLaren Vale.

If this sounds like your kind of night, mark your calendar for Saturday, February 8, and head to the McLaren Vale Visitor Centre for an unforgettable experience.

What started as a small event under a tree in Aldinga has grown into a highly anticipated festival, thanks to the vision of Founding Director Alison Alcock. Today, the festival is a celebration of both emerging and established filmmakers, and this year’s lineup won’t disappoint.
