Port Adelaide has been transformed into a giant outdoor gallery as a result of the 2015 and 2017 Wonderwalls Street Art Festivals. Wonderwalls is a three-day mural festival that has been held in Wollongong and Port Adelaide several times over the past few years.
Along with many supporters such as Renewal SA, Verb Syndicate, City of Port Adelaide Enfield, Ironlak and Taubmans, they have beautified the Port and given this historical town a refreshing new look without detracting from it heritage foundations.
The Wonderwalls Festivals brought together the best mural artists from around the world, and Australia, to transform the Port into an open-air gallery of large-scale murals, with the idea for it to expand and grow like an exterior exhibition over time.
There are some exceptional pieces of art in the Port. So head down to the Visitor Information Centre, grab your FREE map, and explore this exciting old port and its new vibrant street art!
