Autumn is one of the best times to visit Adelaide. The sunshine of summer still lingers, and the weather remains warm and pleasant. Throughout the city, the trees turn orange, golden, and red in a stunning display of colour, while the streets come to life with festivals, events, and performances.
Between March and May (when autumn falls in Adelaide), temperatures range from a comfortable 12.5 degrees to a high of 22 degrees, meaning it is not as sticky as summer, but still pleasantly warm.
As well as wandering the streets that are framed with golden trees at this time of year, there are plenty of other activities to get stuck into, and numerous Adelaide tours to help you take in everything the city has to offer.
