Adelaide Nightlife

For such a relatively small city with a reputation for being quiet and sleepy too, Adelaide has a surprisingly vibrant nightlife. If you want a choice but don't want to stagger too far, then cruise along Rundle Street in the city centre. If you're after live music, you're in luck as Adelaide is still a big supporter of local bands. If you drink beer, ask for a 'schooner'. It's the same size as a 'midi' in New South Wales or a ‘pot' in Victoria.

Bars: The Austral, at 205 Rundle Street, is favoured for its outdoor seating and weekend DJ's, whilst the Belgium Beer Café, 27-29 Ebenezer Place (www.oostende.com.au), offers dark wood European styling, and The Port Dock Brewery Hotel, at 10 Todd Street Port Adelaide (www.portdockbreweryhotel.com.au), is renowned for its house-brewed beers. 

Clubs: The multi-level Heaven Nightclub at 7 West Terrace (www.heaven.com.au) boasts several crowded bars, dance and chill-out rooms. For the best of dance-club DJs, head to The Cargo Club at 213 Hindley Street (www.cargoclub.com.au). 

Live Music: The iconic band venue The Exeter, 246 Rundle Street (www.theexeter.com.au), has a great beer garden and bands playing throughout the week. The Governor Hindmarsh Hotel, at 59 Port Road Hindmarsh (www.thegov.com.au), offers up live music and delicious pub food, including gourmet pizzas. To catch interstate or overseas bands, check out Fowlers Live, 68 North Terrace (www.fowlerslive.com.au).
