Caltowie Chilled Out 'n' Fired Up

Caltowie Chilled Out 'n' Fired Up Sat 20 Mar 27 ✌🏼 We always have local artists (from within a 100km radius) and feel proud to include our local acts in the festival.

In the heart of the tiny town of Caltowie (SA), get ready for a festival experience to feed your soul with all the good feel vibes.
12 hours live music, local SA food trucks & brewers, family friendly environment & on-site camping. In the heart of the tiny town of Caltowie, big-name and lesser known bands from South Australia and interstate converge for an electrifying festival experience each and

every year in March. Each year the artist line-up is an amalgamation of a well thought out plan to ensure from the first to the last act, that each attendee can traverse the chilled to the fired up music from across rock, indie, folk, blues and a little bit of country. Over the last 5 events we have hosted 13 local acts. To date we have showcased 54 bands, on average 81% are from South Australia and 85% are original artists. But where the hell is Caltowie? With a population of 50 on a busy day, Caltowie sits between Jamestown and Gladstone, plonked in the middle of fertile farming land, straddling the Mid-North and Southern Flinders – the perfect spot for a music festival! On arrival you’ll find a stack of food and drink options to keep fuelled up and hydrated. From smoky barbecue to vegan delights to gourmet yiros, plus licensed bars including local SA brewers, there’s something to satisfy every taste bud. If you’re planning to stay for the whole weekend, on-site camping is available. Grab your camping chairs and picnic rugs for an unforgettable day at the Caltowie Chilled Out ‘N Fired Up Music Festival – a celebration of music, community.

TODAY!! Is Renee’s birthday. Can everyone join me in wishing Renee a beautiful birthday. Thankyou for all the hard work you do behind the scenes that no one sees until festival day, for all the late nights and stress, for all the courses and learning and sharing that makes this all possible!! Hoping you have an awesome day!
Ps. We need more festival photos of you next year.

Volunteers are the heartbeat of regional Australia ❤️

To every legend who jumped in—turned up days early to set up, pack down, merch, catering, front gate smiles and everything in between—THANK YOU. You’re what makes COFU, COFU.

Shoutout to our MC, the one and only Roaming Chook 🐔
Up at 5am for live radio, then 12 hours keeping the day rolling… and also became a grandfather mid-festival. Huge congrats, Chook!

To the community groups who always show up with a “hell yes”—Jamestown APEX Club, Caltowie Bowls Club, Caltowie CFS, Jamestown Football Club, Jamestown Lions Club—your support doesn’t go unnoticed, each and every one of you is the backbone of our community.

And to our behind-the-scenes crew—Katrina, Mardi, Ella, Henry, Bryce, Tom, Scott, Mick, Mandy, Tigga, Taylor, Nerissa, Dylan, Carol, Coby and Ben L—your passion and drive is next level.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be part of something bigger… give volunteering a go. It might just surprise you.
