7 June - 10 June 2024
June is a cherished time on Kangaroo Island, a period when Islanders enthusiastically celebrate ‘Island Life.’ This season offers a unique opportunity to savour food and beverages with a distinct flair. Being a producer on Kangaroo Island presents numerous challenges due to its remoteness and harsh conditions, yet these very challenges enhance the uniqueness of its products.
Islanders consistently overcome obstacles, whether it’s distance, weather, or isolation, to create their offerings. The incredible stories of how they manage this are a testament to their boldness and bravery. With a spirit of determination, they take pride in their diverse and resilient wine, spirits, cider, beer, and food culture.
Bring your coat, your beanie and boots, the fires will be lit, the stills will be full, the vintage is in the barrel, it’s time to celebrate Gutsy Kangaroo Island.
