Adelaide's generous boulevards, surrounding parklands and elegant architecture provide the perfect backdrop for an Australian city experience. Adelaide is a vibrant and cosmopolitan city, with a lively events schedule, unspoilt city beaches and a beautiful mediterranean climate to enjoy all the city has to offer.

Visit the home of Australia’s most famous wine – Penfolds Grange, swim with wild dolphins in our clear waters, cuddle a koala or wander the most beautiful cricket ground in the world – Adelaide Oval.

For shopaholics, stroll down Adelaide's Rundle Mall and indulge in some retail therapy. Be sure to pick up some treats from Haigh's Chocolates or stock up on RM Williams merchandise from the legendary Outback outfitter.

If you want to immerse yourself in South Australia's rich arts and culture, walk along North Terrace - Adelaide's "cultural boulevard." It's home to our great collections such as the Aboriginal Cultures Gallery and beautiful heritage buildings.

And if you're after a meal or a drink, there are more than 700 restaurants, cafes and pubs waiting for you. But if there's one thing you absolutely must do, it's take a trip to the Adelaide Central Market – the hub of our food and wine obsession.

Adelaide is a beautiful city and the perfect gateway to explore the wildlife, outback and wine experiences found in South Australia.
