This morning Adelaide Oval welcomed its 25,000th tour patron since the ground reopened in December last year.

Congratulations to Judy who is the lucky winner of an evening in the Audi Stadium Club for the Adelaide Strikers v Melbourne Stars KFC T20 Big Bash cricket match on 18 December.

Demand for the tours has been incredible with people coming from all over South Australia, Australia and the world to see the redeveloped Adelaide Oval. While the Oval is undoubtedly the main attraction, the real stars are the volunteer guides. Their passion and knowledge is what makes a tour of the Adelaide Oval such a fantastic experience.
