Total smoke show. 🔥
Lunch on Fire brought the heat (literally) — with fire pits blazing, parrillas loaded, meats sizzling, and South American flavours stealing the spotlight on the lawn at @howardparkwines.

The crew from @marcadoafuego_ dished up a roaming feast straight from the flames — smoky, charred, perfectly blistered bites layered with bold flavour and heart.

There was a glass of wine on arrival, a whole lot more to follow, and nowhere else we wanted to be on a winter Saturday afternoon.

Big thanks to the fire masters at Mercado and the crew at Howard Park for this epic long lunch of smoke, stories and grape-fuelled joy.❤️‍🔥

We asked our festival chefs for a little something extra — and they delivered.

@chefbrendanpratt from @busseltonpavilion and Evan Hayter from @evandesendent have dropped the goods — exclusive recipes featuring premium WA seafood from our go-to supplier, @endeavourfoods.

On the menu: crispy prawn toast and scallops with citrus foam — straight from the brilliant minds behind some of our most delicious events.

1.5L, 3L, 6L… and zero regrets. 🍷

Meet the Magnums was a night of fireside magic — with bold pours, garden-grown plates, and stories straight from the vineyard.

Set at the stunning @eightwillowsretreat, guests were treated to a seasonal three-course menu by Chef Will Gaunt, with produce plucked straight from the Woodlands garden — all paired with seriously impressive pours (and plenty of them) from @woodlandswines.

Winemaker Sam Badger guided us through each drop — including a few cult faves and one extra special bottle a lucky guest got to take home.

Huge love to the Woodlands crew for pouring their hearts (and their cellar) into this one. 🍇🖤

Drag queens, disco balls, fire feasts and lo-fi sips.
We lit the fires, raised the glasses, hit the dance floors — and left winter on a high.

From Dunsborough to Witchcliffe, and everywhere in between — Cabin Fever 2025 went out with a bang. 🖤

Midweek was anything but mellow. 🔥🍷

While the storm rolled on outside, we kept things toasty — with long table dinners, firelit feasts, wine-soaked stories and plates that just kept coming.

There were rule-breaking collabs, candlelight, cult wines, cosy corners… not to mention giant paellas cooked live, and a few secret drops pulled from deep in the cellar.

A dreamy little breather before the final weekend chaos.

Here’s what went down between the storms. 🖤

Anyone else still dreaming of cheese toasties and fire-side vinos?

The first weekend of Cabin Fever came in hot — with blazing brews, bingo raves, sangria-fuelled feasting, barrel hall banquets, sunrise truffle hunts, long lunches, and some very melty cheese toasties.

Full bellies, wild weather and a whole lotta fun — here’s how it all kicked off. 🔥

Cabin Fever 2025 — you came, you partied, you absolutely smashed it. 🔥

Ten days. Countless feasts, wild dance floors, and wine that didn’t stop pouring.

Before you hang up your beanie and slide back into hibernation, we’d love your thoughts. What did you love? What got soggy? What do you want more of next year?
