From May 2 to 11, 2025, South Australia came alive with the rich aromas, bold flavours, and cultural celebrations of Tasting Australia—the nation’s longest-running and most loved food and drink festival. With more than 150 events spread across Adelaide and the state’s diverse regions, the festival was a feast for the senses. From open-fire cooking experiences and farm-to-table long lunches to foraging adventures and intimate wine masterclasses, every event told a story of South Australia’s passion for quality, creativity, and connection.
But the essence of Tasting Australia goes beyond food and drink. It’s a celebration of the lifestyle, the people, and the sense of place that makes South Australia not just a great destination to visit—but an incredible place to live and work.
A Festival of Flavour, a State Full of Opportunity
As visitors from all over Australia and beyond enjoyed the best of the state’s produce and hospitality, one thing became clear—South Australia is thriving. Its vibrant culinary scene is just one reflection of a broader momentum happening across sectors. From growing regional towns to dynamic city developments, the state is experiencing major investment in housing, infrastructure, and community development.
This growth means more than delicious food—it means real opportunities for international skilled individuals ready to build a future in South Australia.
