Last April, South Australia gathered 18 teams, 9 games and 1 unforgettable Festival of Footy. In 2026, Gather Round has also returned to the Barossa, where rolling vineyards meet die-hard footy fans, setting the stage for a weekend of sport, flavour and local experiences that linger long after the final siren. Whether it’s the buzz of Adelaide Oval or the warm hospitality of regional South Australia, Gather Round knows how to turn Footy into a celebration of sport — it's built into the South Australian story.

Standing on Kaurna Country, the South Australian Tourism Commission recognises the uniquely diverse Aboriginal communities across the state.
We value the knowledge Aboriginal people hold of Country and culture and are committed to growing genuine relationships with Traditional Custodians.
We will continue our journey of reconciliation and support Aboriginal tourism operators and communities to tell their own stories and share their culture with the world.
