Fleurieu Food Festival: The Alpine Shed

Sat 23rd Aug 2025
4:30am - 8:30am

Overview

So, what is "The Alpine Shed" Experience?
Shed. Snow (imagined). Cheese. Chaos (the fun kind).

The Alpine Shed is where the Fleurieu gets its Euro winter groove on — a cheeky, cheese-fuelled celebration held inside the working winery shed of Poppelvej Wines, nestled in the misty Willunga Foothills.

Think of it as après-ski without the skiing: long tables, low lighting, fire pits, funky Poppelvej wines, and melted cheese scraped live onto your plate by Arnaud — the raclette king himself from Raclette Sympatik.

What's On the (Very Cosy) Menu:
Raclette feast by Arnaud from Raclette Sympatik
– bubbling French cheese poured over freshly baked bread by local Andy Clappis , charcuterie, and pickled things
Wine tastings from Uffe and the legends at Poppelvej
Italian-style gelato to finish on a chill note
Welcome gløgg or mulled wine to warm you from the inside out
Tunes, fire pits, and vineyard shed vibes that feel like a hug in event form

Dress the Part – Win a Prize!
Break out the vintage après-ski look, puffers, Nordic knits, or go full chalet-chic — we're giving away a prize for Best Dressed in Ski Gear. The quirkier, the better. Think 1980s snow bunny meets Willunga wine shed!
