Offering unparalleled 360-degree views of our dashing city, the foothills and coastline, you won’t find a better view of the most liveable city in Australia — Adelaide! Built in 1871, Adelaide Oval is considered to be one of the most picturesque sporting grounds in Australia — so why wouldn’t you want to see it from above?
If you’re a little afraid of heights, fear not, you’re in the safest hands. “Our specially trained RoofClimb leaders deck you out in all the gear, give you a full safety briefing and then, lock you onto the structure and guide you across the rooftop of the iconic oval’s Western Stand before navigating to the Riverbank platform, perched 50 metres over the hallowed turf. It’s incredible! The Adeladies cannot get enough of it — they’ve done the walk three times now,” smiles RoofClimb legend and Operations Manager Scott Bray.
The adrenalin really kicks in when you get the chance to lean out 50 metres above the oval’s cricket field and snap a photo!
But the experience is not just about out of this world views — you’ll also learn something along the way. “You get to sit in the world’s first rooftop stadium seats and learn the secrets and stories that shaped Adelaide’s rich history. Our climbers walk away absolutely buzzing!”
