Pacific / Pasifika events in Adelaide

Adelaide's Pacific community is mid-sized and tightly woven. Salisbury and Smithfield hold the Samoan and Tongan families, Para Hills holds the Fijian community, Mawson Lakes holds the Cook Islands families, Pooraka holds the Maori community. Pacific Islander Festival at Bonython Park every March pulls four thousand, Polyfest South Australia at the Adelaide Showgrounds every May pulls two thousand, Tongan Methodist services across Salisbury every Sunday pull four hundred each, Samoan Independence Day at the Adelaide Convention Centre every June, Fijian Day at Pooraka every October. Pacific food in Salisbury. The Pacific Islander Council of South Australia and the Samoan Federation of SA coordinate year-round events. Adelaide Fringe each March picks up at least one Pacific music or comedy act. EventLinqs is built for Adelaide Pacific organisers running events that anchor a Polynesian community in the festival city.
