Penola Coonawarra Arts Festival

The Penola Coonawarra Arts Festival has grown exponentially to become one of the most flamboyant regional art festivals in South Australia.

The festival brings together an eclectic fusion of art, literature and the finest wines from vineyards that dot Coonawarra’s landscape.

Over three days, we celebrate our amazing region’s art, history and cultural heritage. Our community is abundant with fine wine and food, premium regional produce, creativity and a welcoming spirit for those who live, visit and stay.

The Penola Coonawarra Arts Festival is another outstanding example of our community spirit, comprised of teamwork, dedication, and talent. The small but merry committee works hard throughout the year to create a festival that truly has something for everyone across all areas of the arts.

What is a celebratory festival in Penola without authentic wine from the region’s world-class wineries? Visitors can expect to indulge in premium wine from the famed Coonawarra wineries, a fundamental part of Penola’s rich heritage.
