WA! Fest returns to Little Farms for its third edition from 22 to 30 September 2026, celebrating the produce, people and makers of Western Australia through a series of dining, wine, market and wellness experiences, alongside a dedicated retail showcase across Little Farms stores.
In partnership with Invest & Trade Western Australia, this year’s festival gives the people of Singapore the opportunity to taste and discover Western Australia through its produce and the passionate people behind it.
The expanded 2026 programme includes a Taste of Western Australia by Yarri, a WA! Wine Appreciation evening, two WA! Farmers Markets and, new this year, a wellness morning at The Bloomhouse. Running throughout the festival from 22 to 30 September, a dedicated Western Australian retail showcase across Little Farms stores will also spotlight a curated selection of products from the region.
WA! DINNER: A TASTE OF YARRI
On 24 and 25 September, WA! Fest comes to The Bloomhouse by Little Farms with a special dinner featuring a menu from Yarri, the acclaimed restaurant in Dunsborough, Western Australia. Known for its ingredient-led approach and close relationships with local growers, farmers and winemakers, Yarri puts Western Australian produce firmly at the heart of its cooking.
The menu begins with crumbed whiting sanga with yuzu kosho tartare and Jerusalem artichoke with wagyu biltong, wattleseed and parmesan, followed by a choice of BBQ octopus skewer with nduja, sunrise lime and saltbush, or cured Exmouth tiger prawn with tomato XO, stracciatella and Geraldton wax.
For the main course, guests can choose between red emperor or Rankin with charred leek, pippies and harissa butter, or lamb rump with onion, broad beans and anchovy, before finishing with Bahen & Co chocolate namelaka with yuzu and honeycomb. An accompanying wine list will showcase a selection of standout wines from Western Australia.
The WA! Dinner will be held at The Bloomhouse by Little Farms from 5pm on 24 and 25 September, priced at S$108++ per person. Booking link here.
DISCOVER WESTERN AUSTRALIAN WINES
On 25 September from 5.30pm to 7pm, The Bloomhouse will turn the spotlight on one of Western Australia’s lesser-known wine regions with a dedicated WA! Wine Appreciation evening featuring Thunderstone.
One of Western Australia’s newest wine projects, Thunderstone comes from the Great Southern, a cool-climate wine-growing region around 40 kilometres north of Albany. Led by winemaker Tony Davis and wine farmer Redmond Sweeny, the project has been more than 30 years in the making and focuses on three varieties: Riesling, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Guests will taste the wines while discovering the story behind the project and the ancient granite landscape that shapes them.
WA! Wine Appreciation takes place at The Bloomhouse on 25 September from 5.30pm to 7pm, priced at S$35 per person. Booking link here.
MEET THE MAKERS AT THE WA! FARMERS MARKETS
The WA! Farmers Markets return over the weekend, taking place at Little Farms Serangoon Gardens on 26 September and Little Farms Tanglin Mall on 27 September, from 10am to 3pm on both days.
Returning favourites include Nectar Honey, producing raw Western Australian honey; Hippie Kombucha, an independent Swan Valley producer of small-batch, naturally fermented kombucha; Hail the Kale, known for its crunchy wholefood snacks; Wagyu Biltong Co., known for its premium Australian biltong; and Abrolhos Octopus, showcasing seafood from Western Australia’s pristine waters.
The drinks line-up includes Thunderstone, producing site-driven wines from vineyards across Western Australia; Small Things Wine, which packages its Margaret River wines in lightweight, recyclable cans; and Fremantle-based Running With Thieves, known for its independently produced craft beers and spirits.
Completing the line-up is Bannister Downs Dairy, the family-run Western Australian dairy known for its fresh milk and dairy products. Newcomers Feel Good Popcorns and Bahen & Co, the Margaret River maker of stone-ground, bean-to-bar chocolate, join WA! Fest for the first time.
NEW FOR 2026: WELLNESS IN BLOOM: PILATES & HONEY
On 28 September, WA! Fest introduces a new wellness morning at The Bloomhouse by Little Farms, designed around the simple idea to move, discover, nourish and linger.
Beginning at 8am, guests will take part in 50 minutes of mindful mat Pilates with The Flow Studio in Orchid Solhouse, The Bloomhouse’s air-conditioned event space, surrounded by the greenery of the Singapore Botanic Gardens.
Guests can then linger over refreshments from Little Farms and Nectar Honey, including fresh sandwiches, petite overnight oats and granola cups. Every guest will also take home a curated goodie bag worth more than S$50, featuring wellness favourites from The Flow Studio, ButterBee Active, Nectar Honey, Hippie Kombucha, Hail the Kale and Little Farms.
The wellness morning takes place at The Bloomhouse on 28 September, 8am to 10am, priced at S$57 per person. Bookings can be made at the link.
WA! FEST, YEAR THREE
Following its debut in 2024, the third edition of WA! Fest expands beyond dining and Farmers Markets with new ways to experience Western Australia throughout the nine-day festival, from the dedicated retail showcase across Little Farms stores to wine appreciation and wellness at The Bloomhouse.
Tom Gray, Commercial Director at Little Farms, says:
“The response to our WA! Fest over the past two years showed us there’s a real appetite in Singapore to discover more of what Western Australia has to offer. For our third edition, we wanted to build on that excitement and create even more ways for people to experience the best of WA – from discovering new products in our stores and enjoying a special Yarri dinner, to meeting our WA suppliers at our Farmers Markets, tasting wines from the Great Southern, or joining us for a Monday morning at Bloomhouse.”
He adds:
“What makes the festival special is the quality and diversity of what Western Australia produces, and we’re excited to bring even more of that to Singapore this year.”
Betty Yang, Investment and Trade Commissioner for ASEAN (Singapore) shares:
“Invest and Trade Western Australia is delighted to partner with Little Farms once again for WA! Fest, celebrating Western Australia’s premium food and beverages. Renowned for its quality, trusted provenance and pristine natural environment, Western Australia is home to an exceptional range of food and beverage products. Through a series of culinary, wine and wellness experiences, we look forward to bringing a taste of Western Australia to Singapore and inviting consumers to discover the variety and flavours that our state has to offer.”
