From belly breathing to belly dancing, South Australia’s premier wellbeing festival WellFest Adelaide returns this October.

Adelaide’s CBD and north will transform into a thriving wellness hub with local operators showcasing wellness-oriented experiences designed to revive, destress and restore.

Launched this weekend, the three-day festival’s program is jam-packed with more than 40 events, and even more to be announced shortly. Here’s just a sneak peek of what to expect…

Now here’s a change from your usual yoga class. Practise your downward dog in style by immersing yourself in the scents of aromatherapy oils while a cellist plays beautiful, dreamy music in the background in an exclusive Yin yoga class.

Move your hips in a belly dancing for beginners lesson, loosen up with a one-hour organic relax massage by Endota Spa or tap into your mindfulness during an exclusive after-dark Adelaide Zoo experience. Sip and paint studio, Studio Vino will host the adults-only event, giving people private access to the zoo while they relax, and sip and paint next to the animals.

Tired from doing absolutely nothing but finding your inner zen? Recharge with a Sleep, Swim and Stay experience at South Terrace’s Hotel Alba or move your body more by taking on Greenhill Road’s aerial park TreeClimb. If you prefer to stay on solid ground, pedal your way towards good health as Adelaide City and Parks Bike Tour take you along the gorgeous River Torrens/Karrawirra Parri.

There’s also a chance to immerse yourself in a luxurious state of calm during a 60-minute journey of sound and relaxation hosted by Salt Cave Sound Bath Soul Sessions where you’ll have the chance to enter a salt cave. You can even bring the kids along to some events, like the Mini Shimmy: belly dance where they can learn the art of belly dance.

WellFest Adelaide runs from October 6 to 8 and is an Adelaide Economic Development Agency initiative, supported by the City of Adelaide.
