Highlights of What's On in Adelaide in February
February is full of fun things to do in Adelaide as the
Adelaide Fringe Festival hits town. The
spectacular Opening Night is an awesome free event with colourful entertainment and performances, and be sure to see the
Parade of Light show illuminating buildings along North Terrace afterwards.
It's Chinese New Year in February too, bringing the traditional celebrations to Chinatown. Don't miss the exotic Lion Dances which are an integral part of the festivities. You'll find the Lion Dances at many Chinese restaurants during the Chinese New Year period, here's a guide where to
find some of them .
Something you won't be able to escape in the coming weeks is talk about the state election. With a highly competitive field of candidates, it's important to back one who has your interests in mind. The National Trust is holding a free
Valuing Our Heritage forum in Adelaide on February 15, giving you the opportunity to grill all parties in an entertaining Q&A style event. Book early to get a place.

SPICE: A Singalong at Raj House
Michael Shafar: Kosher Bacon

Other Exciting Things to See and Do in Adelaide
There's so much more to exploring regional South Australia than wine tasting in the Barossa or Clare Valleys. Did you know the rugged beauty of the Flinders Ranges comes at a price, as the residents of
ghost town Ucolta found. Other towns like Kapunda flourished and enriched South Australia, before leaving a fascinating legacy
at their mines .
When you can't tear yourself away from the city though, you may be surprised what history you can discover
on Franklin Street , or wildlife wonders in unexpected places
at Victoria Park .
Few of us can resist great food, and a romantic food experience with a friend makes it so much better. See our guide
where to go to enjoy just that.
The Greek on Halifax could easily be added to the list, while
Zayt & Zaatar Restaurant could suit you if you're north of town. But if your best friend is your cat, there's
only one option that's just right.
