Adelaide

in a whole new way

Adelaide

adventure around every corner

Adelaide is far more than a gateway to Australia’s great wine regions. It’s a city that knows how to do food properly, making it an ideal base for England fans looking to eat and drink well between matches. Rundle Street in the East End mixes historic pubs with family‑run cafés and standout restaurants, perfect for long, alfresco sessions from morning through to night. Close by, Norwood Parade brings a European edge, while Gouger Street—next to Chinatown and the Adelaide Central Market—serves up some of the city’s best Asian dining. 

Sport is part of the city’s DNA. Home to the iconic Adelaide Oval, widely regarded as one of the most beautiful grounds in world sport, this is a place that lives and breathes big occasions. If watching isn’t enough, head to one of the city’s beaches for an impromptu game of cricket on the sand—you’ll likely find locals keen to reignite the Australia‑England rivalry. 

Off the pitch, jump on the tram to Glenelg for coastal downtime and dolphin encounters, catch one of the city’s year‑round festivals, or duck out to nearby vineyards for a day among the vines. In Adelaide, England fans don’t just travel—you settle in and live the good life.

National Park City
Adelaide is one of the few cities in the world to hold National Park City status, reflecting its commitment to being greener, wilder and cooler. That ethos is clear across the city’s expansive parklands, surrounding hills, beaches and nearby conservation areas. Rich in native wildlife, Adelaide is best discovered on foot, by bike or on the water. From new e bike trails along the river to paddleboarding off the coast and guided walking tours with local experts, it’s an easy introduction to the relaxed, outdoor lifestyle locals enjoy all year round.
