Often considered as the ‘Heart of the Arts’ the Adelaide Festival Centre is home to an eclectic range of cultural performances. The building was erected in 1973 on the banks of the River Torrens in support of the unity of South Australia and Adelaide communities and the thriving culture of the arts. It was under the architectural vision of John Morphett and the profound enthusiasm of the general public that the Festival Centre was built.
Coopers Brewery has survived where many others have failed; it is now the only Australian-owned major brewing company.
