Garden Of Unearthly Delights Reveals 2017 Programme

Our eclectic team of writers from around Australia – and a couple beyond – with decades of combined experience and interest in all fields.

With over 100 shows in 13 venues across 31 days and nights, the 2017 Garden Of Unearthly Delights has blossomed beautifully.


More than 750,000 people visit the event every season, and its popularity grows year after year. As part of the programme, the massive hit show from the creative minds behind Madonna's Rebel Heart tour 'Blanc de Blanc' will showcase their skills.

A new take of 'LIMBO Unhinged' will open the door and delve deeper into the dark world of the award-winning production with all the familiar characters and then some.

Sticking to tradition, Garden Of Unearthly Delights will host some of the most fun shows, able to spring anyone into the party mood. 'Massaoke' and 'Jagged Little Singalong' lets audiences belt out endless Alanis Morrisette, while the kids can experience 'Kid / Dub', a family party based on 'Hot Dub Time Machine'.

When it comes to family activities, 2017 is no exception to The Garden's big, bold family facet.

'The Amazing Drumming Monkeys', 'Children Are Stinky', Peter Combe and 'Boomstars & Supercats' will all return.

Some new additions will excite and delight, including 'Super Amazing Giant Girl' in her show about fitting in, and a visual arts installation for kids called 'Foals'.

Physicist-turned-magician Kevin Quantum will make his Adelaide debut with 'Illuminations', and Indigenous dance stars and YouTube sensations Djuki Mala are back with their unique, infectious fusion of traditional Yolngu and contemporary pop culture, dance and storytelling.
