A State of Change – South Australia’s History Festival, 1-30 May 2021
In 2021, the History Festival is exploring the theme of ‘change’. From political change to social change. Changing places, changing minds, changing hearts.
Welcome to South Australia’s History Festival 2021
South Australia’s History Festival is an annual statewide event exploring South Australia’s history.
Held throughout May each year, the History Festival explores the state’s places and spaces, stories, collections and ideas that make us who we are.
In 2021, the History Festival is exploring the theme of ‘change’. From political change to social change. Changing places, changing minds, changing hearts. Change for the better, change for the worse-on a big or a small scale-and everything in between.
The world around us is constantly undergoing change. Change is also a major thread that runs through the histories we share.
One of South Australia’s largest open-access community events, the History Festival program features hundreds of events ranging from talks to tours, walks to workshops and exhibitions to special events.
Events happen anywhere: urban and rural, towns, cities and suburbs; in museums and libraries; in boats, trains and buses and mysterious buildings; on the street, by the beach and in nature.
Hear the latest research and tales of the unusual and unknown; from amazing experts to local guides. With hundreds of events to choose from, there’s something for curious minds of all ages.
