Project background and information

The Adelaide Park Lands Events Management Plan 2016-2020 outlines Council’s consultation and engagement requirements before a temporary event licence for the Park Lands is granted. City of Adelaide has a commitment and legislative requirement to consult with the public on events in Adelaide Park Lands that will occupy a significant portion of a Park for more than four weeks (including bump in and out), and/or is a new event application that would have significant impact on the Park Lands or community.

The temporary Urban Beach activation proposed by Renewal SA will be held in Pinky Flat/Tarntanya Wama and the River Torrens/Karrawirra Pari. This new initiative aims to test the viability of summertime activities on the banks of the river and to explore suitable activities that do not involve water immersion.

This new urban beach project is intended to be a primary summer attraction designed to entice visitors and locals to the area. Please see below for specific details of the event including purpose, location, and times and offerings.
