"Our Adelaide post already suggested a visit to the Adelaide Zoo, so you may already have this suggestion on your radar. It is the only zoo of the four within the Adelaide CBD. The Zoo is the second oldest zoo in Australia and is home to more than 250 species of animals (yes, it is not as big as Berlin)."
"Widely reputed to be the prettiest cricket ground in the world, the Adelaide Oval hosts all kinds of different sporting events throughout the year. Opened in 1871, it still exhibits some incredible Edwardian architecture in places, and its old scoreboard helps retain its charm among the more modern developments. Watching a game of cricket or Australian rules football here is a great way to experience the passion with which Aussies support their local teams."
"The South Australian capital is nicknamed the City of Churches, but its most famous cathedral is dedicated to sport, a venue that routinely draws a crowd of 50,000-plus to worship at the altar of cricket and Australian football. Rock up in summer for a game of cricket – either the Australian national team or the Adelaide Strikers Big Bash franchise – or in winter to see the city’s beloved AFL clubs, the Adelaide Crows and Port Adelaide Power."
"Whilst Rundle Mall is pretty much your run of the mill capital city shopping precinct, it does boast a few little marvels which make it worth visiting on your stay in Adelaide with kids. At the top of our list is the Beehive Corner where Australia’s very first Haigh’s Chocolate store was opened back in 1915 – it still stands there today!. Head in to taste some chocolate and buy some Australia handmade chocolate bliss!"
"Adelaide’s main shopping district, Rundle Mall was opened as Australia’s first pedestrian street mall in 1976 and now contains more than 700 retailers. As the state’s premier retail space, Rundle mall is home to a number of flagship stores including David Jones and Myer."
"Built in 1888, the Central Islamic Mosque is the oldest mosque in Adelaide. It has four minarets from 1903, which have been rebuilt since then. Part of Australian heritage, this building is protected by the government."
"The Victoria Park Loop is a great place for families to take a walk, ride bikes away from the dangers of the road, or to simply walk the dog in open space away from the traffic.Read our review"
"Electric Circus is open every Saturday night and has been leading the way on the Adelaide clubbing scene since 2003. This moderately priced basement venue regularly invites top Australian and international DJs to enter through its iconic red doors. Make sure you visit this popular spot which Rihanna described as “one of the best Australian clubs I’ve ever been to”."
"Editor's Note: Photo taken from the establishment's official social account. for more info on upcoming events go to bit.ly/ECircusEvents Often Imitated, Never Duplicated Established 2003. If you’ve never been to a nightclub overseas other than the ones in your home country, here’s an opportunity to visit one while in Adelaide."
"In Adelaide, on the trail of an epic night out, there are practically no other venues that can compare with this intimate basement club for which even Rihanna is prepared to vouch. One of Australia’s top night spots without ever needing to make too much fuss about it."
"The Stanley Bridge Tavern represents the quintessential Australian pub venue where locals congregate for chicken schnitzels and burgers, with a pint of local ‘froth’ from their favorite local brewery. But the Stanley Bridge is more than just a modern Adelaide Hills pub. The owners are the same wine aficionados who opened The Crafers Hotel, which won Best Winelist in South Australia and in the top three Best in Australia in 2018."
"If you’re looking for somewhere to spend a summer’s afternoon then head to this Adelaide Hill’s pub. Stanley Bridge Tavern has a large beer garden nestled in trees. It’s a great spot for some outdoor pub food."
"Golding Wines and head chef, De Buys Nortier, have gifted Adelaide with a new dining experience at Ginkgo Restaurant. The seasonal menu features beautifully crafted dishes that will take your senses on a journey through the very best of South Australian produce. The restaurant offers a three or four-course set menu available in two sittings Friday to Sunday and public holidays."
"This sushi train restaurant has heaps of options, fresh ingredients, and best of all – every seat has a personal iPad which you use to order, which makes it really fun!"
"Their location in Central Market Arcade is surely a must-visit. You will surely enjoy the unique dining concept Sushi Train is known for. Since opening its first restaurant in Queensland back in 1993, Sushi Train has opened numerous branches around the country."
"In beach-side Glenelg, the food here is always fresh, delicious, and the owner is really friendly. Because it’s a sushi train, you always end up eating way too much, but you always leave satisfied!. They also do takeaway to curb that craving."
"Brunch, the mealtime created where don’t have to get up too early, where you can drink alcohol before midday, and where you can combine eggs and bacon with burgers and fries and not feel one bit guilty about it. When we really think about it, the only con about brunch is that it doesn’t last all day!. Adelaide’s brunch scene is without a doubt one you will want to crawl out of bed for so, to get you started on your day, here are the 10 best breakfast and brunch spots in Adelaide you have to visit in 2021."
"You and the girls need sustenance but aren’t sure where to go; you’ve exhausted all the brunch options and want to discover something new, exciting and fun. With options including ‘BAE’ - bacon, egg, hash browns, and ‘Chocolate Bowl’, washed down with organic tea and fresh juices, this has to be the new place you check out. 5/292 Military Road, Semaphore Park"
