This is Leon of Leon’s Smash Burgers notoriety.

AI tells us that he is "widely celebrated as one of the best pop-up burger joints in Melbourne. Reviewers consistently praise the perfectly thin, lacy-crispy edges of the chuck and brisket house blend patties, which are perfectly balanced with melted American cheese and a signature, tangy smash sauce on a classic Martin's Potato Roll."

Don't trust AI? We don't either.
Come form your own critical thoughts on these cult burgers when he makes his South Aussie debut at Adelaide Beer & BBQ Festival 2026 under the roof at The Drive ADL for the first time.

On this day in 1991, Sydney rockers Ratcat hit No. 1 on two ARIA charts with their single 'Don't Go Now' and album, 'Blind Love'. The feat occurred just weeks after their 'Tingles' EP had also spent a fortnight atop the charts.

We can leak to you now however that it would not be a festival without our mates at Riot City Wrestling. They will be brining the flesh to the battle in the main arena exclusively during our 'Wayville Warriors' session (aka Saturday daytime) for your viewing pleasure 🤼
