About Us


The Adelaide Festival is one of the world's great arts events.

Since its launch in 1960, it has created a strong tradition of innovation and inspirational performances drawing on selections of very diverse art forms from across Australia and around the world.

Held in the warm South Australian autumn in every 'even' year, this is a large-scale multi-arts event of extraordinary richness and diversity.

Each Festival program includes opera, theatre, dance, classical and contemporary music, cabaret, new media events, Adelaide Writers' Week (the largest literary festival in the world), outdoor entertainment, visual arts exhibitions, master classes, forums, a late night club and much more.

The 2012 Festival will be staged from 2 - 18 March.
