Logan! Get your Chilli On! ™
Due to the ongoing vagaries of Covid-19 and the effects on our industry, Organisers have decided to cancel Chillogan Festival in 2021.
The new date is Saturday 19th November, 2022 from 3pm to 10pm.
A cool start to the event set on the sprawling front oval of Hills International College Jimboomba,
means you can relax, kick off your shoes, eat and drink under the stars until 10pm.
You'll be seeing lots of our kangaroo friends around the placed at sunset as they much away on all that lovely grass!
Remember, each online ticket purchased via Humanitix means they donate your booking fee to Nutrition for Aussie Schoolkids.

Covid Safe
We are working hard to produce a Covid-Safe event which aligns with Government guidelines as to screening, social distancing, cleansing, communication, monitoring and reporting.
Our Covid-Safe Event Plan has been lodged with the relevant health authorities to ensure that we adhere to strict guidelines to bring you a great event whilst keeping you Covid-Safe.
Maximum allowable patronage for our festival is 1800, however, organisers are aiming for only 1500 pax on site at any one time, to keep everyone comfortable and safe.
Refund Policy
If you feel unwell and cannot attend the festival, simply, we are happy to refund you.
Similarly, if the event is cancelled due to unexpected Covid restrictions being implemented by the health authorities, your ticket will also be refunded (less booking fees).
First Aid
We are lucky to once again have thes support of Focused Health Care who will be providing us with a First Aid Post on festival day,
and keeping in close contact with Organisers and Security Personnel throughout the day should anyone present with symptoms of Covid.
Social Distancing
We are all slowly getting used to the new "Covid-way" and maintaining 1.5m distance from others where possible is the key to everyone staying safe.
Please observe this rule while you are at the festival and, should social distancing become impossible, don your #RedChilliArmy Face Mask.
Face Masks
These are not mandatory but if you'd like to get in the spirit, purchase a #RedChilliArmy face mask ne at the gate for just $3. We donate $1 back to the Balinese village who produced them for us.
Bag Checks
As the event is licensed, we do not allow BYO alcohol. To minimise contact at the gate, please use a small bag if possible. Security can easily detect that you are compliant with our "NO BYO" policy.
Larger bags and backpacks may need to be emptied and we'd rather avoid that if possible.
Covid Safe App
Download the Covid-Safe App - if you'd like to take this precaution, you can download it from your Smart Phone App store.
A variety of delicious chilli condiments, sauces and other products will be available for you to try and buy at Chillogan!
