Adelaide Festival
Adelaide Festival has overcome challenges posed by the global pandemic to launch a 2021 program featuring 70 events – including a record number of Australian premieres, a free opening night concert, two international installations and a series of performances livestreamed from Europe direct to Her Majesty’s Theatre.

Adelaide Festival will host a new pop-up Festival Club next year, with plans for a 1430-person-capacity open-air venue by the River Torrens that will host live music and other events, as well as serving food and drinks.

Adelaide Festival will present UK composer Benjamin Britten’s opera A Midsummer Night’s Dream as a highlight of its 2021 program, with four performances at the Festival Theatre plus big-screen streamed events in Elder Park and regional areas.
The Adelaide Festival will go ahead in 2021 but it will look very different, co-artistic director Rachel Healy tells InDaily, with changes including a new Festival hub, more South Australian and Australian shows, and increased outdoor experiences.
