Join us for a night of fun and festivities celebrating the rich history of the Adelaide University sporting community.

🗓️ Friday 9th October 2026
⏰ 7:00pm-11:30pm (Doors 6:30pm)
📍 Adelaide Convention Centre

The Adelaide University Sport and Fitness 130 Years Gala Dinner: Reconnecting Past Champions, Funding the Future will acknowledge key milestones including:

• 120 Years of the Adelaide University Football Club
• 120 Years of the Adelaide University Athletics Club
• 80 Years of the Adelaide University Basketball Club

Hosted by media personality Jess Adamson, throughout the evening you'll be able to enjoy fine award-winning South Australian wine from Howard Vineyard, Coopers beer, and a delicious three-course meal - while hearing the enthralling tales from an exciting line-up of Australian sporting identities, and networking with past and present players, alumni, Olympians and the wider Adelaide University sporting community.

As we raise funds for the Waite Oval Redevelopment, we invite attendees to bid during the Magain Online Auction (beginning prior to the event and finishing on the night) and the Magain Live Auction hosted by Platinum Sponsor Magain, buy bottles from the spectacular wine wall, taste the Adelaide University Sport Seasons Gin at the Prohibition Gin tasting bar (and buy a bottle!), and buy tickets for fantastic raffle prizes.

All money raised at the 130 Years Gala Dinner goes towards supporting the crucial Waite Oval Redevelopment project. Learn more, see proposed site plans, and make a tax deductible donation to the Waite Redevelopment Fund.
