2 Be surprised... with what ADELAIDE has to offer Adelaide, South Australia has undergone a vast transformation, resulting in world class infrastructure and a new vibrancy whilst keeping its unique authentic approach. This area is developing as Australia s best connected business, events and entertainment precinct, offering a lively and highly integrated riverside space for delegates to meet and do business by day and be entertained by night. A recent investment of $5bn has been made to Adelaide s Riverbank. Complementing these developments is a world leading Health and Medical Research Institute, and other key health and medical developments, cementing Adelaide s reputation as a hub for related conventions. Several new hotels, an expanded retail precinct and the Victoria Square redevelopment are just some of the other developments enhancing Adelaide s global reputation as the complete convention city. The Adelaide Airport is one of Australia s fastest growing airports with new routes through China Southern and Qatar Airlines and with several new hotels opening, Adelaide is an ever growing destination that is quickly positioning itself as a vibrant, contemporary city. The ability for Team Adelaide partners to support specific events is a unique advantage for a boutique destination and is often referred to as a small city with a large infrastructure. Adelaide is the gateway to some of Australia s most celebrated wines, cuisine, festivals and natural wonders of our landscape. Adelaide is a safe and secure destination. With blue skies, fresh air, open spaces and a highly connected and easy place in which to do business, Adelaide looks forward to surprising and delighting you and your guests.
