What to do & where to go in Adelaide over the June Long Weekend
Our much needed mid-year long weekend will sound a little different in 2023 as we celebrate the King’s Birthday public holiday on the second Monday in June.
As always in the festival state there are events and activities happening all over South Australia. Winter is still a wonderful time to get out and about, from the hills to the coast make the most of campfires, spot a whale on the Fleurieu or explore the city and visit a museum or gallery.
Play & Go is your FREE family friendly guide to Adelaide and your favourite resource for finding events and activities the kids will love. Check out our daily ‘what’s on’ tabs below or scroll down for a comprehensive list of where to go and what to do over the long weekend.
