Cronullafest

Cronullafest

Clear your weekend and loosen your waistbands, Cronullafest is taking over Cronulla mall from 4pm Friday 5th to Sunday 7th September, and we’re not showing up empty handed.

Popping up outside of our Cronulla store on Saturday and Sunday we'll be serving two limited edition products plus you could win $1000 worth of Messina. 


First up is our very fun-sized, Mini Mushie (a cute version of our Dr Evils Magic Mushroom cake). We’re talking dulce de leche gelato, chocolate mudcake, peanut butter cremeux, chocolate sponge, a PB cookie, even more dulce de leche, chocolate gelato and a shiny red glaze with white chocolate dots.

Then for those that want something a little more fruity there’s Aunty Tomsu’s Cheesecake - with soft and fluffy Japanese cheesecake, strawberry and cherry blossom cream, strawberry meringue, fresh strawberries, and our strawberry gelato on top


If you’re craving something colder and a little more grown-up, our Apple Martini sorbet is making an inevitable return to the Cronulla cabinet for the weekend. Inspired by the iconic Alphabet St. Apple Martini (yep, the cult shire cocktail), this sorbet brings the same crisp, punchy flavour just scoopable.

Plus every purchase made through the Messina app at the cronulla store during Cronullafest gets you a spin of the wheel. You could win free scoops on the spot, or go in the draw to score $1,000 worth of Messina credit. That’s a whole lot of gelato aka enough to make you the most popular person at your next dinner party.

Haven’t got the app yet? No worries. Just scan the QR code in-store or click here to download it. 

T&Cs: This promo runs from 5th–7th September 2025 at Gelato Messina Cronulla only. One spin per purchase made via the Messina app. The winner of the $1,000 Messina credit will be drawn from all entries and contacted by 9th September 2025 via their app-registered email.
