Top 16 Adelaide Music Festivals That’ll Keep You Dancing All Year Long [2023]

Music Festivals in Adelaide 2023

Looking for the best Adelaide Music Festivals!? Well, you’ve come to the right place, mate…

The ‘City of Churches’ isn’t just that anymore. Along with its Eastern state neighbors, Adelaide has really developed into a destination in its own right.

As I type this, Adelaide is ranked 5th on the list of the world’s most livable cities, and 1st on Australia’s National list of most livable cities! It’s made the “Most Friendly Cities” list AND Lonely Planet has deemed it one of the coolest cities in the world for street art.  

Rad-elaide” is really certainly earning that title.  

In addition to beautiful beaches, great local produce, and its location on the precipice of some of Australia’s most majestic peninsulas, the Adelaide music festivals scene is another amazing reason to visit the South Australia state capital!

No longer is the Adelaide Fringe the only iconic live event in this city, because there really is no shortage of amazing events, concerts, and parties to choose from.  

So without further ado, take a browse through what I believe to be are…
