One of the country’s most iconic sporting venues, Adelaide Oval holds an elevated status as the home of cricket and Australian rules football in South Australia. Imposing and white-roofed, the stadium towers above the leafy suburb of North Adelaide. Constructed in 1871, the 2012 redevelopment of Adelaide Oval brought the historic stadium in line with the modern demands of large sporting venues. The stadium often hosts concerts, with artists such as Elton John, Madonna, and Fleetwood Mac having performed there.

  Awesome saw Phil Collins, Not Dead Yet, his son played drums - mighty talented! Good songs excellent singing good show! The show was five star Adelaide oval needs more width between rows though. It'd be nice when it's cold lol! Otherwise amenities were great and staff polite.

  Saw the Adelaide Strikers T20 cricket, it was the best night out and an electric atmosphere. Its the best stadium in Australia, functional and architecturally beautiful as well. Take the tour and climb the roof if you want to have a better look around Adelaide Oval.
