Northern Areas National Events

As one of the most isolated regions in all of Australia, the Northern Areas - located in South Australia - might seem like a quiet, almost forgotten part of the country, but in actuality, it's bursting with life! Throughout the year, there are a variety of nationally or globally recognised annual events that take place in and around the region, offering locals and tourists alike the chance to experience something truly extraordinary.

One of the most beloved events in the Northern Areas calendar is the Burra Picnic Races, which take place every spring. This local favourite has been running for over 160 years and is a great excuse for the entire community to come together and let their hair down. The day itself is a hybrid of horse racing and a country fair, with visitors treated to live music, food, and drinks, not to mention the opportunity to dress up and show off their finest race day attire.

The Clare Valley Gourmet Weekend is another standout event in the Northern Areas. This food and wine celebration has been running since 1984 and is a mecca for lovers of all things gastronomic. With over 30 wineries in the area, you can indulge in a wine or two while taking part in everything from cooking demonstrations to masterclasses from world-renowned chefs. Whether you're a sommelier or a newbie to the world of food and drink, you're sure to find something delicious to try.

For those with a love of art and culture, the Kadina Show is an event not to be missed. Held annually in September, the four-day programme is jam-packed with entertainment, displays of local craftsmanship, and a showcase of the region's agricultural heritage. Whether you're looking to take in a performance from a local theatre group, sample some tasty homemade treats, or just browse the stalls and exhibits, the Kadina Show is a must-visit.

But it's not just the arts and culture that make the Northern Areas so special: the region is also home to some of the country's most awe-inspiring natural wonders. One such wonder is the Flinders Ranges, with its undulating mountains and multitude of hiking trails. Every year, adventurers flock to the area for the Arkaroola Wilderness Sanctuary Star Party, where they can marvel at the night sky's glittering display while learning from expert astronomers and astrophysicists.

And if you're looking for something that blends nature, history, and food, then head to Port Pirie for their annual Smelter's Picnic. This community event celebrates the town's rich mining heritage, with demonstrations and tours of the town's smelting facilities. But it's not all serious stuff - there's also plenty of food and activities for all ages, making it a fun day out for the whole family.

These are just a few of the nationally and globally recognised annual events that take place in and around the Northern Areas each year. Whether you're a local or a visitor to the region, there's always something to see, do, and experience in this incredible part of Australia.
