Beyond the wine and winter feasts… go deeper 🔥

While you’re in the region for Cabin Fever, don’t miss the chance to explore what’s beneath the surface — literally.

Friends of Cabin Fever — our festival VIP passholders — score 15% off all cave experiences at Mammoth, Jewel, Ngilgi and Lake Caves — thanks to the legends at @capes.foundation.

Wander through chambers home to ancient megafauna fossils at Mammoth Cave, gaze up at Australia’s longest straw stalactite at Jewel Cave, and marvel at glowing formations reflected in the mirror-like stream at Lake Cave. Test your vocals in the legendary amphitheatre at Ngilgi Cave, or if you're feeling brave, take on the crawl tunnel—a hit with adventurous kids (and grown-ups too).

These underground wonders are just a short drive from the festival action — perfect for a daytime adventure before your next fire-lit feast or late-night rave.

👉 Friends of Cabin Fever is our VIP membership unlocking early ticket access, exclusive discounts, and perks all festival long. Still time to join the crew — head to our bio to find out more.

Ransack the Cellar 🍷🔎

@capegracewines are throwing open the vault — and you're invited to plunder the goods.

We’re talking basket-pressed reds, crisp whites, and a rare stash of museum wines going head-to-head with fresh releases. It’s a deep dive into vintage, flavour and finesse, led by winemaker Conrad Tritt (aka your guide through the grape-stained archives).

Sip, compare, conquer — then cash in your $20 wine voucher and take home a trophy bottle or two.

This isn’t just dinner. It’s a full-blown flavour reckoning. 🔥

Truffles at sunrise, nostalgia with a side of mischief, and magnums pouring like nobody’s watching.

This year’s Cabin Fever dining lineup is throwing out the rulebook — with rogue wine pairings, fast food gone fancy, and bites that mean business.

Silverback Stout Sesh 🦍🍺

Eight stouts. Eight smoky courses. One meaty, malty, music-filled night.

@cheekymonkeybeer is cracking open the cellar with a vertical tasting of Silverback Stout from 2021–2025 — paired with a fire-powered menu by Chef Simon at @margaretrivertuckshop. Think rich flavours, local produce, and dishes built to stand up to the dark stuff.

Add live tunes from Noah Young and a few cheeky surprises, and you’ve got a stout-lovers dream night at the top of town.

Pintxos Party 🇪🇸💃

Clear your Friday, cancel your plans — this Spanish-style street party is taking over lunch.

@rustico_hayshedhill is serving up a full-blown midday fiesta with sangria on arrival, tapas stations everywhere you look, and enough heat to make you forget it’s winter.

Loud, proud, and just the right amount of unhinged — it’s all passion, all flavour, and zero regrets (unless you skip it).

Miss Chow’s Yum Yum Cha 🥟

🔥 First sitting = SOLD OUT 🔥
So we’re doing it again. You’re welcome.

@misschowsau’s turning up the steam with a bottomless yum cha feast that’s got Margie talking. Start with a lychee martini, then get cosy with dumplings, buns and spring rolls made with top-tier South West produce. Free-flowing tea will keep you toasty, or opt for a glass of something special from their neighbours, @edwardswines.

🎟️ Two sessions only. One left. Snooze and you’ll lose.

DISCO JUICE 2.0: LOUDER. LARGER. SPARKLIER. 🪩🍺

Your ticket gets you a schooner on arrival, a taproom-exclusive brew, and a dance floor powered by outrageous moves and disco bangers all night long.

Dress loud — there are prizes for best sparkle fit.
