About this event

G'day mates! Whether you're new to Oz (Australia) or been here for a while, join us for a celebration of Aussie culture on Friday the 10th of March, from 4.30pm – 7:30pm on the Barr Smith Lawns, North Terrace Campus.

You will be able to experience Australian culture through food, games and experiences presented by our wonderful Cultural Ambassadors;

  • Be welcomed to the traditional lands of the Kaurna people by an Indigenous Elder,
  • Try your hand (or foot) at Aussie Rules football, cricket, netball and rugby with our guests from AU sport,
  • Meet and pet some native Australian animals (beware the drop bear),
  • Learn and be confused by classic Aussie slang and expressions (not to mention the accents),
  • Tantalise your taste buds with Australian snacks like Bushtucker ice cream, lamingtons, Tim Tams and the infamous Vegemite.

The event is free for all University of Adelaide students and includes dinner, as well as iconic Aussie snacks for guests to try. LCE gives you a golden opportunity to experience unique cultures with a different country theme each time and you will get to take home some precious knowledge about the country and culture with plenty of fun!
