West Beach to Adelaide Hills
Grab your deck chair and settle in to wave to the drivers of SA’s largest historic vehicle cavalcade as they make their way from West Beach to the Adelaide Hills. More than 1500 heritage and rare vehicles will drive the 67km route to the Birdwood Finish Festival at the National Motor Museum.

With cherry blossoms in full bloom and the OzAsia Festival in town, you’ll be forgiven for forgetting you’re in Australia.
The extensive festival program includes bold theatre, contemporary visual arts and of course, mouth-watering Asian cuisine.
Adelaide
Father Christmas and his many helpers will usher in the festive season a little earlier this year. The largest pageant in the Southern Hemisphere will wind through the city, before finishing in Rundle Mall – where it all began more than 90 years ago.
Various locations
The hills are alive with the sound of souped-up engines and spectators cheering. From dedicated spectator zones, enjoy all the exhilarating action, live music and good food. The event wraps up with the Gouger Street Party in the CBD.
Port Noarlunga
In its lucky seventh year, you’ll feel the groove at SA’s largest blues and roots festival. Across three days, Port Noarlunga’s cafes, restaurants and Arts Centre will transform into bespoke performance venues for exceptional local and national musicians. Sit back and soak up the vibe.
Adelaide Street Circuit
For 25 years the Adelaide 500 has brought heart-pumping action to the streets of the city. Cheer as the Supercar drivers give everything they have on the track, then rock on through the night with bands like Crowded House and Cold Chisel at the after-race concert.
