Illuminate Adelaide

Winter in South Australia means late nights, bright lights, and big adventures.

Throughout July, Illuminate Adelaide Illuminate Adelaide celebrates that idea by bringing together the best and boldest in art, music, technology, and invention from around Australia and the world, and sets them loose across Adelaide.

Each year South Australia’s premier winter event turns Adelaide’s streetscapes and iconic locations into a beacon. An invitation. A city-wide spectacle daring you to shake off the winter blues and rekindle a sense of wonder.

Welcoming people from all walks of life to experience a program of free and ticketed events by local, national, and international artists, Illuminate Adelaide is about staying up, heading out, and coming together. It’s about looking forward, breaking ground, and making memories. It’s about turning those long winter nights into an opportunity: to wake imaginations and let curiosity run wild.
