Thousands of revellers braved the wild weather as they let their hair down at a wine festival in Adelaide

Some of the festival goers at the McClaren Vale Sea And Vines Festival in South Australia opted to forego fashionable outfits in favour of garbage bag ponchos.

Others simply layered their looks with blazers, denim jackets and long coats.

Meanwhile, a group of unruly attendees who hadn't quite made it to the festival yet were filmed holding up their bus to relieve themselves on the side of the road.

The video, shared to social media, showed six men either urinating on trees or hunting for a more private spot, while others of the crowded bus watched on.

Other members of the tour were laughing, or shaking their head in disbelief, as the men went about their business.

'Why are they weeing so close together?' one woman shouted, while another claimed they weren't her friends.

'I can see all your willies,' she said.

The video sparked backlash online, with many people expressing their gratitude they chose to avoid the 'classless' festival.

'This is feral and disgusting. I'm so glad I didn't go to this,' one woman said.

'Good to see all these people are keeping it classy...not.' 

While the wild weather wasn't ideal for the day, festival goers seemed to relish in the winter chill, simply covering themselves in the black garbage bags before continuing with the festivities.  

A group of women were spotted attempting to protect their hair, makeup and outfits by covering themselves in the bags.

Another woman left a small opening in her garbage bag so she could continue to puff on her cigarette.

The wild weather certainly didn't dampen the spirit of festival goers, with some using garbage bags to combat the unruly weather

Another woman chose to show off her strength on the day, using a marquee to perform a series of pull-ups.  

She was commended by impressed onlookers.  

Meanwhile, another was spotted chatting into a banana, apparently mistaking it for her phone.

Despite the various antics, South Australia Police spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia behaviour had been 'generally pretty good'.

One event that sold-out last year and is back again in 2019 was the Angove McLaren Vale Andre's Cucina & the Blind Tiger Gin Bar.

The dining experience has a four-course menu, wine, cocktails and music in a historical vineyard.  

McLaren Vale Grape Wine And Tourism Association General Manager Jennifer Lynch said she is excited to show off the region once again. 

'The Festival has welcomed hundreds of thousands of visitors for nearly three decades and we look forward to welcoming new and returning guests to our region – there is always something new to discover in McLaren Vale,' Ms Lynch said.
