What to do in SA this weekend
Father Christmas brings holiday cheer to Adelaide and a huge summer of cricket kicks off at Adelaide Oval.
Christmas Pageant
November 14
Grab the chalk and don the Santa hats as the Christmas Pageant officially kicks off the festive season this weekend. Thousands of people line the streets as more than 80 iconic floats, old and new, and groups on foot make their way from South Terrace, through the city to finish on King William Street, at the end of Rundle Mall. Father Christmas delivers his special Christmas message from Beehive Corner before making his way to National Pharmacies in Gawler Place.
Barossa Rodeo
November 14
Take in the family friendly atmosphere of Australia’s only timed, public rodeo event. Started by long-time friends Gary and Amanda Teilen and Bridgette Hastings, and held at Bridgette’s private property near Lyndoch, expect the usual rodeo fare including team roping, steer wrestling, batter racing and breakaway roping. Once the rodeo events wrap up, live music takes over the arena. There is no accommodation on site, but plenty nearby with a bus loop between Tanunda, Gawler, Lyndoch and Williamstown.
Woof & Wine
November 14-15
Following a sell-out debut, this weekend of food, wine, wellness and four-legged friends returns to the Coonawarra. The Woof & Wine Walk on Saturday is a weekend highlight as you take the relaxed trail linking six wineries – Brand’s Laira, DiGiorgio Family Wines, Ottelia, Redman Wines, Wynns Coonawarra and Zema Estate – at your own pace. On Sunday, decompress with Downward Dog Pup Yoga, and expect a Best-Dressed Dog Contest, Canine Mini-Me Look Alike Contest and Best Dog Trick with prizes up for grabs.
