Festivals in Adelaide
If you don’t know already, Adelaide has the best of everything in Australia.
From Australia's best wine country to being home to Australia's official
best restaurant, hotel, wine, gin, and beach, the city has everything and
more! The “more” are its spectacular annual festivals, which keep on popping
up at the best venues and have been a tradition for years! Experience all
the best things, be it food, music, or art; festivals in Adelaide have
everything for you. Here are some of the ones that made it to the top of the
list for us.
1) Tasting Australia
One of the nation's oldest food and drink festivals,
Tasting Australia
celebrates and unites people because people, produce, and place are
fundamental to their identity. Every autumn, they invite viewers to explore
beyond the confines of a typical food festival and uncover delectably unique
experiences that satiate their curiosity. Take a flight with Tasting
Australia Airlines to places you've always wanted to see. Savor the magic
that occurs when world-class chefs join local legends—impossible moments to
replicate.
2) Adelaide Festival
The
Adelaide Festival
is known as Australia's premier arts festival on a global scale. It is
regarded as one of the best in the world, ranking alongside sister festivals
in Edinburgh and Avignon and giving spectators the opportunity to view the
most innovative and well-known artists currently active in the art world.
Adelaide Writers' Week, Australia's largest free literary festival, is part
of the program as well. Adelaide Festival has led the way in artistic
innovation since 1960, commissioning and supporting avant-garde new works.
3) Adelaide Fringe Festival
Every year, in February and March,
Adelaide Fringe is an open-access festival that invites anybody with an
event to take part, spanning four weeks. What is meant by "open access"?
Each year, hundreds of curators and venues work under the auspices of
Adelaide Fringe; we do not control or limit the program, nor do we run any
venues or events. Adelaide Fringe offers a venue to sustain this distinctive
ecology. The Fringe team is a year-round, easily reachable resource for
venues, producers, and artists.
4) Adelaide Guitar Festival
Every June, one of the most prestigious festivals in the city brings
together internationally renowned guitarists with Australian local and indie
musicians for a two-week showcase of musical prowess. The
Adelaide Guitar Festival
keeps demonstrating why Adelaide is deserving of its designation as a UNESCO
City of Music. The guitar festival features seminars where budding musicians
can pick the brains of bands and performers themselves, as well as industry
activities, music forums, and classical concerts.
