Showcasing the Limestone Coast

This Saturday, the Naracoorte Town Squares will come to life for the 2025 ‘Taste the Limestone Coast Festival’

This much-loved event has been running since 2001 and returned last year with a bang after a three-year hiatus.

More than 1200 people attended last year, enjoying perfect weather and an unforgettable experience.

With around 15 producers, all local to the Limestone Coast, the February 15 festival is a must-attend.

Wineries from Mt Benson, Coonawarra, Padthaway, and Wrattonbully, along with spirits from Penola and beer from Robe, ensure a fantastic selection of beverages.

To complement the drinks, festival-goers can indulge in an amazing array of food, including Turkish cuisine, Vietnamese specialties, wood-fired BBQ meats, gourmet hot dogs, and more.

No festival is complete without entertainment, and this year’s lineup is sure to impress.

Kicking off the day is Naracoorte-born Orlando Bennett (AKA Shaun Brown), followed by local talent Wade Roach and the Millicent band Low Expectations in the afternoon.

The Stringybach Music School will showcase various local artists on the back stage throughout the day.

Organisers are also thrilled to welcome Rick Wilson & Linda Street, known as ‘Wilson Street,’ as well as Suburban Henry, a Mt Gambier band with strong Naracoorte connections, to round out the night.

From local artists to award-winning wines, craft beers, gin, and, of course, delicious food, this event has it all in one spectacular location.

Tickets are available at Humanitix or at the gate. The festival starts at 12 noon on Saturday.

‘Taste the Limestone Coast Festival’ is proudly run by the Lions Club of Naracoorte, with proceeds going towards a community SOZO machine—an essential tool for lymphoedema patients, particularly those affected as a side effect of cancer treatment.
