SUMMARY:Schoolies Festival 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Schoolies phenomenon in Australia marks the end of high school for graduating students\, with late November hosting the iconic Schoolies Week.\n\nWhile the Gold Coast remains a central hub for these celebrations\, Victor Harbor has been the primary Schoolies destination in South Australia for more than 25 years. What began as a week-long celebration has evolved into a well-managed three-day ticketed event that prioritises safety and community welfare. \n\n\nThis year’s Schoolies Festival for South Australian school leavers will be held on Warland Reserve\, nightly from 7pm to 1am Friday 20 and Saturday 21\, 3pm to 11pm Sunday 22.\nThe festival offers a range of entertainment\, activities and support services for school leavers in a controlled and supervised environment. Official wristbands assist in identifying legitimate Year 12 school leavers and provide access to festival activities and endorsed accommodation programs. \n\n\nEncounter Youth coordinates the event in partnership with the City of Victor Harbor\, Alexandrina Council and key emergency services and government agencies. \n\n\nFor more information for school leavers please visit schooliesfestival.com.au\n\nFor more information for non-school leavers please visit Schoolies Festival | Victor Harbor City Council

SUMMARY:Victor Harbor Half Marathon
DESCRIPTION:Lace up for South Australia’s favourite half marathon\, where the course traces Encounter Bay and the Southern Ocean sparkles beside every stride. \nFlat\, fast and framed by million-dollar coastal views\, the Victor Harbor Half Marathon is made for personal bests. There’s a 10K\, a 5K and free kids’ runs too\, so runners of every level and the whole family can be part of race day.\nEntry brings plenty of support along the way: aid stations with sports drink\, race day medical support\, electronic timing\, race photography\, and post-race fruit\, water and a massage to ease tired legs. Runners rave about the friendly\, well-organised atmosphere\, which makes it an easy choice for first-timers and seasoned racers alike. \nMake it a weekend by pairing the run with Victor Harbor’s relaxed seaside charm\, just a scenic one-hour drive from Adelaide. Swim at a quiet sandy beach\, hike the clifftops\, tuck into fresh local seafood\, and keep an eye out for dolphins and seals in the bay. Cross the finish line\, then stay for the coast.
