Each month, sa move brings you our pick of SA events that everyone should have on their calendar.
April 2025
Don’t be a fool this April. Mad March is over, but there’s still loads of unmissable events happening around South Australia. Here’s our favourite April events to check out.
1. Human Nature
When: 2 April
Where: Adelaide Entertainment Centre
Am I only dreaming? Or is this Human Nature gliding into town? Take your dancing off the streets and into the Adelaide Entertainment Centre as the global pop stars celebrate 20 years since reinvigorating Motown for the modern audience. The MTWN20 tour features the best of their Las Vegas productions, including popular favourites from their Reach Out, Dancing in the Street and Get Ready albums and much more.
Now you’ve heard it through the grapevine, RAA members get an exclusive offer on Human Nature tickets. Don’t miss this double-whammy of 60s and 90s nostalgia combined.

4. All Historic Mallala 2025
When: 12–13 April
Where: Mallala Motorsport Park
Get as close to the action as you can without driving on the track at SA’s last true picnic race. Park your car right by the track and experience the excitement of the All Historic Mallala up close.
With more than 180 historic racing cars and bikes on the field, you’re in for a treat. There are thrilling races, rare cars on the track and on display, and this year an all-new Trackside Pavilion with a bar overlooking the circuit. Throw in food and drinks, racing simulators, books, merch and free kids’ activities (kids 16 and under get free entry), and you have an electrifying weekend the whole family will enjoy.
5. Barossa Vintage Festival
When: 23–27 April
Where: Various locations in the Barossa region
If you thought time travel was a figment of science fiction, think again. Take a journey through the decades at the Barossa Vintage Festival this April, with more than 85 events to choose from, spanning wine, food, art, music, heritage and the local community.
Claim your spot for the Vintage Festival Parade, a time-honoured tradition that first began in 1949, or see sparks fly at daily free blacksmith demonstrations. Get your feet dirty pressing grapes the old-fashioned way at Grapestomp or sample a little bit of everything at Barons of Barossa’s exclusive tasting experience, 50 years/50 wines. If you’re not lucky enough to live in the area, treat yourself to a getaway to one of the world’s great wine regions.
6. Open Day at The Stables
When: 24 April
Where: 11 Canton Place, Victor Harbor
The Stables aren’t horsing around; they want to see you at their behind-the-scenes Open Day in Victor Harbor. When they aren’t faithfully transporting people from the mainland to Granite Island, the famous Victor Harbor Tramway Clydesdales call the new purposefully designed The Stables home.
This school holidays, gather your herd (free entry for children four years and younger), and saddle up to see these stunning steeds train and strut their stuff. Top off the day with coffee and snacks, and roam the grounds.
