Flying firmly in the face of Adelaide’s questionable tradition of becoming a ghost town over the summer break, the Adelaide Festival Centre is maintaining a strong program of events over the warmest weeks of the year.

Led by the widely-acclaimed Club Swizzle – where drinks are served almost as readily as the acrobatic and virtuosic entertainment – the season stretches through December and January.

Other highlights include The Rocky Horror Show – the now-classic tale of two clean cut kids getting caught up in the sexually and musically charged world of Frank N Furter – played to perfection in this original script remounting by Craig McLachlan.

The Centre is also presenting the Adelaide French Festival in January – a new addition to the summer festival calendar that brings an array of French culture – including the chance to drink, eat, and dance under the stars with So Frenchy So Chic in the Park – to the city.
