Caltowie Chilled Out 'n' Fired Up Music Festival
Memorial Oval
Caltowie Chilled Out 'n' Fired Up, set in the tiny South Australian town of Caltowie, unites big-name and emerging bands from across the state and interstate for one electrifying day each March. With a thoughtfully curated line-up that shifts from laid-back, soulful sets to high-energy rock, indie, funk, folk, blues, and a touch of country, it's a festival designed to take every music lover on a journey from chilled to fired up.
This is far more than just a music festival – it's an experience wrapped in country charm and bursting with personality. Festival-goers can savour smoky barbecue meats, vegan delights, and wood-fired pizzas, while licensed bars pour South Australian craft brews. The intimate setting means no long queues or faceless crowds – just friendly smiles, open space, and music that feels close and personal. With on-site camping under the stars and a strong commitment to supporting mental health, the festival fosters connection, wellbeing, and a genuine sense of belonging.
Caltowie, population 50 on a busy day, is nestled between Jamestown and Gladstone on the edge of the Southern Flinders Ranges. Here, scenic hikes, charming towns, and rolling farmland are right on your doorstep. With eco-friendly touches like reusable drink cups and true community spirit, Caltowie Chilled Out 'n' Fired Up is the ultimate weekend escape.
