Renowned for world-class events like Adelaide Fringe, WOMADelaide, and OzAsia, the city offers a vibrant cultural atmosphere that celebrates diversity. In 2023, Adelaide welcomed 3.4 million overnight visitors, with 58% from interstate, reflecting its national appeal (Tourism SA).
With its affordability compared to other major Australian cities, Adelaide offers a budget-friendly experience, including diverse accommodation options and top-tier dining. The city's welcoming community and thriving arts scene ensure that PolArt 2025 will be an unforgettable experience for visitors from across Australia and beyond.
Adelaide’s compact layout makes it easy to explore and beyond the city, visitors can enjoy day trips to the globally acclaimed Barossa Valley, as well as the McLaren Vale and Adelaide Hills wine regions. The Clare Valley, just 1.5 hours from Adelaide, is particularly significant as the site of the first Polish settlement in Australia, with notable historical sites such as the Polish Hill River Church Museum.
