Scale the Adelaide Oval roof and stand 50 metres above the turf

RoofClimb Adelaide Oval is a 2-hour guided roof climb across the iconic stadium's Western Stand and Riverbank platform, where you navigate 50 metres above the ground with a small group of up to 14 climbers. Safety equipment, a climb suit, souvenir cap and achievement certificate are included; you choose from nine departure times when you book, and guides capture photos available for purchase after the experience.

The Experience

Two hours on the Adelaide Oval roof means crossing the Western Stand, traversing a link bridge to the Riverbank platform, and reaching an open viewing deck that overlooks the southern end of the ground. You'll be fitted with safety equipment and a climb suit before your guide leads the group — capped at 14 climbers — across the rooftop. The platform sits 50 metres above the turf, and from there the views sweep 360 degrees across Adelaide, from the coastline to the foothills. This is not a tour of the stadium's interior; you're on the structure itself, moving across it with a trained RoofClimb Leader who shares the stories and history woven into the building.

The climb requires closed-toe, rubber-soled shoes and weather-appropriate clothing; you'll wear the provided suit and safety gear throughout. Minimum height is 125 centimetres and maximum weight is 136 kilograms. Children aged 8 to 15 must be accompanied by an adult, and the operator asks that climbers have at least a moderate level of physical fitness. Cameras and GoPros aren't permitted on the activity itself, but your guide is equipped with a camera to capture moments, and additional photos are available to purchase when you finish.

Nine departure times spread across the day — morning slots at 9:30am and 11am, afternoon departures at 4pm and 5pm, and evening options ranging from 6:30pm through to 9pm night climbs. The experience wraps with a souvenir cap, an achievement certificate and a group photo to take home. Public transportation options are available near the venue, so you can plan your own arrival.
