South of Adelaide in the centre of the Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia, the
Willunga Basin spreads from the hills to the sea. Willunga is a small
country town, rich in history and filled with character and friendly people.
Enjoy the weekly and monthly markets, festivals, fairs, productions, exhibitions
and concerts. Visit during the international events of the Tour Down Under
and the Adelaide Classic Car Rally or for Willunga's major community event, the
annual Willunga Almond Blossom Festival.
Stay a few days in the quality bed and breakfast accommodation and sit
back in a cosy eatery and taste the local produce.
Nestled between and only
minutes from National Parks in the hills and some of Australia's best
swimming beaches, Willunga is a wonderful place to visit and WillungaFestivals.com welcomes you and hopes that this
site prompts you to visit Willunga soon...

Willunga Family Orchestra needs you!
Concert master Wendy Dyson is sending out an SOS for the Willunga Family
Orchestra (formerly known as the Willunga Youth Orchestra). They are
currently in rehearsals for their popular August concert and a series of
concerts in the Fleurieu peninsula. They are in desperate need of some
brass and woodwind players, as several of last years players have moved on to
other local orchestras and productions. Rehearsals are on Saturday
mornings in the school term from 11am to 12MD at Cooinda, corner of Methodist
Street and St Andrew’s Terrace. The orchestra plays a lively collection of
pieces and is great experience for players of ALL ages. Wendy would love
to hear from you.
Enquiries to Wendy Dyson – 0418 844 356.
