With Adelaide’s reputation for culinary excellence, award winning vineyards, cultural/artistic interests and many festivals, no one would suspect that it is also one of the most affordable cities to host your next conference. Conference venues in Adelaide will treat your guests to something special without blowing the budget.
The climate of Adelaide is considered ‘Mediterranean’ providing an abundance of fresh fruit and produce. Vineyards in the surrounding areas of Barossa, Clare, Coonawarra and McLaren Vale thrive in the mild winter conditions which reach maximums of 15-16 degrees Celsius and minimum temps of around 8 degrees Celsius. Diversity in lifestyle and activities is the name of the game with hot dry Summers (on average 29 degrees Celsius but sometimes climbing to 40 degrees Celsius or above) lending themselves to long cool evening walks around the picturesque city gardens or river Torrens or maybe some down time for your guests at the pristine beaches just a short tram ride from the city. Adelaide operates on daylight saving time between the last weekend in October to the last weekend in March. Local time is advanced 1 hour to 10.5 ahead of GMT. Working with the diversity of the seasons in Adelaide – the Conference venues are well versed in the opportunities the winter months bring. Cosy luncheons at any of the prolific wineries or culturally diverse eateries or perhaps hiking at the surprisingly close Gorge or Falls create great experiences for your delegates. As the locals will tell you, the clear blue skies of Spring and Autumn are a regular occurrence that makes time spent in Adelaide very memorable during these months.
Whatever the season, you can be sure the conference centres in Adelaide have addressed the importance of providing a comfortable environment in contributing to the success of your conference.
