Adelaide at Easter time can be awesome. You can head to Elder Park and have a sensational Easter egg hunt with family and friends along the Torrens river. A super park setting for any picnics and tea parties! Or get down to Glenelg for a beach Easter egg hunt! No kicking sand! The restaurants and venues will be having themed Easter menus to enhance the fun! So you'll find the main fare being fresh fish for Good Friday and Hot Cross Buns on the breakfast menus for Easter. And in Adelaide you can even catch the Trams around town to make getting around even more easy. And don't forget that just out of Adelaide the famous Oakbank horse racing carnival is on over the Easter Weekend. It can be a lot of fun!
