There’s nothing quite like standing 50 metres above Adelaide Oval, looking straight down at the pitch from a perspective normally reserved for birds, or the bravest of fans.
Getting started
You arrive at the RoofClimb Centre at Adelaide Oval, greeted by the buzz of anticipation. After check-in, you’re fitted with a climbing suit, harness and receive a safety briefing. Your RoofClimb Leader makes sure everyone feels comfortable and ready before stepping out onto the stadium’s rooftop.
What to expect
Harnessed securely, your group sets out across a purpose-built walkway above the Oval. Through your headset, your guide points out landmarks, the Adelaide Hills, Torrens River, the sparkling coastline, while weaving in stories of the stadium’s sporting triumphs and cultural legacy. At the lean-out point, you’re clipped in and invited to tip your body out over the Oval. The stadium drops away beneath you. It’s a heart-in-your-throat moment that’s somehow equal parts terrifying and exhilarating, and it’s the memory most climbers talk about long after they’ve come down.
