We were delighted to host the first Adelaide Connected event of the year on 18 February 2026 at the stunning Kerry Packer Civic Gallery, surrounded by the colour, creativity and energy of Sanaa Festival.

The Sanaa 2026 exhibition, Let Creativity Shine was the perfect setting for our networking event – a relaxed, welcoming space that doubled as a natural ice breaker and set the tone for meaningful conversations and new connections.

This event brought together the broader Committee for Adelaide network and our Adelaide Connected community, providing a great opportunity for recently arrived and returning South Australians to grow their networks and feel connected to the city. And this is just the beginning. The Sanaa festival has many more exhibitions, events and creative experiences happening across the city and well worth exploring over the coming weeks.

We’re looking forward to many more Adelaide Connected events throughout the year, creating spaces where people, ideas and community come together.

Adelaide Connected is proudly delivered by the Committee for Adelaide, with the support of a grant from the Department of State Development’s, ‘Skilled Migration Talent and Industry Connection Program’.
