Adelaide
South Australia's compact, walkable capital hosts ESA Seminar 2027 — five-star conferencing on Victoria Square, a free tram at the door, and one of the world's most liveable cities on your doorstep.
Welcome
Adelaide is laid out on a mile-square grid, ringed by parklands and small enough to cross on foot in twenty minutes — the beach at Glenelg and the vineyards of the Barossa Valley are both under an hour away for pre- or post-seminar time.
Acknowledgement of Country
ESA Seminar 2027 will be held on the traditional lands of the Kaurna people, known in the Kaurna language as Tarndanya. We pay our respects to Kaurna Elders past and present, and to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander delegates joining us.
