Adelaide is home to some of the best street art in the world.

Hidden in alleys, nooks, corners and lanes, finding the artworks is an urban adventure and you’re invited to explore. 

Street Art is a celebration of our cultural diversity and invites you to experience different perspectives - let the artworks tell you a story.
