FAQ

The Adelaide Fringe infrastructure will not block existing pathways during the event so thoroughfare will be maintained for pedestrians and cyclists.

The Gluttony infrastructure will not block existing pathways during the event so access will be maintained for pedestrians and cyclists.

Traffic marshals will be onsite during set up and pull down to ensure pedestrian and cyclist safety while using pathways.

Access to the park will be restricted for the duration of the event’s lease.

Once the event has opened, during peak pedestrian and cyclist transit times the central pathway will remain open. When pathways are blocked an alternate route will be indicated.

Approval for an event requiring public consultation is only given after the consultation period has concluded and Council has had the opportunity to review any submissions.

Adelaide City Council discourages any event from promotions prior to Council approval.

In some instances, particularly national tours, there is a need for events to announce dates in each capital city. This however does not constitute Council approval for the event.
