South Australia is renowned for festivals and special events. Blessed with Mediterranean coastal climate, great beaches and awesome stretches of Outback, the sate is also gaining a reputation for eco-tourism and Aboriginal tourism experiences.
South Australia's capital Adelaide host the most extensive and exciting festival of all - The Adelaide Festival - held biennially in even-numbered years. Thousands of Australians and international performers come together for this spectacle, praised by arts writers for its originality, dynamism and artistic brilliance. The Adelaide Fringe Festival runs parallel to the main festival, beginning a week earlier showcasing hundreds of performances in venues across Adelaide.
South Australia's attractions are very varied: rugged coastal scenery, sheer cliffs and wildlife sanctuaries, Aboriginal rock carvings and paintings thousands of years old.
