From long lunches and exceptional dining experiences to opera, sporting showcases, curated market days, art classes, memorable musical performances and cooking masterclasses, the Adelaide Italian Festival offers a diverse program that everyone can enjoy, regardless of age or cultural background!
Festival goers will take to the streets of the McLaren Vale for La Grande Gita presented by San Remo
on Sunday 1 November and can select one of four leisurely routes. It’s an opportunity to experience
the pristine surrounds and enjoy some traditional Italian fare. If cycling isn’t your thing – skip the ride
and enjoy a day out at Serafino with the family and feast until your hearts content while you watch
the rider’s cycle past.
Take a trip down memory lane on Saturday 14 November as the Adelaide Italian Festival returns to
the East End. Close your eyes and picture the streets of Italy with pop-up Italian food vendors,
entertainment, live music and plenty of activities for the kids. Let the colourful and lively Italian
atmosphere transport you to a place far away!
High in the Adelaide Hills, the National Motor Museum’s outstanding collection of automobilia stretches back to the very dawn of the motor age. Antiques and unique one off vehicles sit alongside classic designs that rolled off the production lines around the world (including Holden’s Elizabeth plant), while displays explain how the evolution of auto design and Australia’s social history are irrevocably intertwined.
Generations of home cooks and renowned chefs alike have roamed the aisles of the Adelaide Central Market since it first opened over 150 years ago. Listen to buskers competing with vendors hawking their wares, breathe in the aroma of freshly ground spices and glistening seafood and marvel at the dazzling array of foods on offer at the 70 stalls selling fresh produce from around the state and cuisines from across the globe.
But don’t stop there! Go and meet gardeners who grow your vegetables along with farmers raising chickens and cows, artisan cheesemakers and bakers presiding over cabinets of exquisite pies and pastries at one of the many farmers’ markets around Adelaide. The largest and most convenient market is the Sunday Morning Adelaide Farmers’ Market, while there are regional markets in Willunga, the Barossa and the Adelaide Hills for those seeking further adventure.
