Feast Festival’s beloved Picnic in the Park returns for another instalment of music, food and booze at Whitmore Square/Iparrityi on Saturday 22 November.
With support from City of Adelaide and Adelaide Economic Development Agency, this year’s event has an extended running time, from 11am to 9pm, and features an awesome lineup of music headlined by Ukulele Death Squad.
Having just spent time overseas touring Germany and Aotearoa (New Zealand), the eight-piece collective returns to their hometown of Adelaide for what promises to be an action-packed evening of gypsy jazz, R&B and folk on a day of queer celebration.
Along with music, Picnic in the Park includes a host of delicious food trucks and fully stocked bars, market stalls showcasing local wares and a petting zoo for all ages.

This year’s event has also seen ticket prices dropped, meaning entry is free for all, so expect a boisterous crowd throughout the day.
Feast Festival CEO Tish Naughton says, “What better act to dance to in the grass – for free? Ukulele Death Squad are a local treasure with global appeal and the energy they bring is exactly what Picnic in the Park is all about: celebration, connection and unapologetic queer joy.”
Feast Festival is now in its 28th year and runs from 1-23 November with the theme of LIBERATION. The festival marks 50 years since the decriminalisation of homosexuality in South Australia, with the full program of activities to be announced soon.
