If you are going to Air Supply at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on Thursday 10 December 2026, the show starts at 8:00pm in the Theatre, with Theatre doors open at 7:15pm. The tram from the city centre to the Centre is free, and the Centre accepts card only for parking. Adelaide is on daylight saving in November (UTC+10:30), and every time below is local Adelaide time.
This guide is from the Centre’s own Air Supply event page and its Getting Here, Venue FAQs and Accessibility pages, read on 9 November 2026.
What time does the show start, and when do the doors open?
The event page gives this running order for Thursday 10 December in the Theatre. It says running times are approximate and may be subject to change.
| Time | What happens |
|---|---|
| 4:00pm | Box office and car park open |
| 6:30pm | Orb doors open |
| 7:15pm | Theatre doors open |
| 8:00pm | Show start |
The page names no support act and does not list set times. The Centre says set times for concerts are provided by the promoter or venue hirer, and it publishes them on the event page as soon as they are available, as a guide only.
Who is playing?
The event page says Air Supply are coming to the Centre’s Theatre this December to celebrate 50 years of music, after five sold-out Australian shows last year. It says Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock first met during rehearsals for Jesus Christ Superstar in 1975, and that the set will include Lost In Love, All Out Of Love, The One That You Love, Love and Other Bruises, Making Love Out Of Nothing At All and Now And Forever. The pair are joined by their band. The page names no support act.
Where do I buy tickets, and what do they cost?
The event page warns that people who search for the Centre’s tickets on Google or other search engines can be sent to a resale site that looks official, and that only tickets bought from Ticketek are valid at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre. Prices on the event page, as of 9 November 2026, include GST, and service and handling fees and delivery fees may apply:
| Ticket | Price |
|---|---|
| A Reserve | $249.90 |
| B Reserve | $199.90 |
| C Reserve | $169.90 |
| D Reserve | $139.90 |
| E Reserve | $99.90 |
| Air Supply On Stage Viewing Experience Package | $999.90 |
| Platinum VIP | $599.90 |
| Gold VIP | $399.90 |
The event page lists three VIP packages, each with a premium seated ticket, a pre-show sound check, a Q&A session with Air Supply and a collectible VIP laminate. The On Stage Viewing Experience Package adds a special viewing area on stage for the first three songs and a photo opportunity with Air Supply on your own device. The Platinum VIP adds the photo opportunity but not the on-stage viewing. The Gold VIP has the seat, sound check, Q&A and laminate only.
How much is parking at the Centre?
The Centre has more than 1,400 on-site car parking spaces, reached via Mary Street, Manton Street or Adam Street only. The Getting Here page lists an event parking rate of $19 (prices correct as of 3 June 2026, GST inclusive). The Air Supply event page does not list parking, so the Getting Here page is the source for that rate. The Centre accepts card only for all on-site charges, including parking, food and drinks; all cards are accepted with no surcharges. After major events, the Centre asks drivers to allow extra time for delays leaving the car park.
Access to the Centre is through three entrances, and the Centre asks you to check your ticket for your designated entry. The Getting Here page links a venue map with the entrances.
Is there a free tram?
Yes. A free tram service runs daily between the Adelaide Entertainment Centre and the city centre, with frequent services in peak travel periods. The Entertainment Centre Tram Stop is immediately in front of the Centre on Port Road. The Centre says additional tram services are often provided on event days, but it has not announced any for this show.
What about the train, buses and taxis?
| Option | What the Centre says |
|---|---|
| Train | Bowden Railway Station is about 150 metres from the Centre, with easy pedestrian access |
| Bus | Bus stops are 50 to 80 metres from the Centre; buses 150 and 157 pass directly |
| Taxi | Ranks are on both sides of Port Road near the main entry; a designated taxi zone is on Port Road before the traffic lights when travelling west, in front of the main entrance |
| Ride-share and private vehicles | A drop-off zone is on Port Road after the traffic lights when travelling west, in front of the Theatre, with a maximum stop of 2 minutes |
| Bicycle | Rails are in front of the Centre; bring your own lock, and parking is at your own risk |
The Centre says that during peak event times, all areas around the Centre may be congested, and it recommends allowing extra time. It also suggests planning your Adelaide Metro journey in advance.
What can I bring in?
Bags must fit comfortably under your seat, and bags or backpacks larger than A3 (40cm x 30cm) are strictly prohibited. The Centre has no bag storage on site, and all bags, including those carrying medical equipment, are inspected on arrival.
Video cameras, monopods, tripods, selfie sticks, audio recording devices and professional cameras, meaning those with telephoto or zoom lenses, are not permitted. The Centre also says some artists prefer a phone-free show, in which case details are published on the event page; this event page does not say so. Concerts can include flashing lights, laser, strobe, confetti, haze and pyrotechnics, and the Centre points anyone with questions about a specific event to its contact team. Free earplugs are available from staff. The Centre is a non-smoking venue.
What food and drink is on sale?
The Centre has fixed and mobile food and drink outlets for Arena and Theatre events in the foyers and other public spaces, with confectionery, soft drinks and alcoholic drinks. Food items are limited to baguettes, hot chips, wedges, pizza slices, burgers, hot dogs, pies, pasties and sausage rolls, and the range can vary from event to event. The Theatre has a merchandise stand with EFTPOS, if merchandise is offered at your event. All on-site food and drink outlets in the Theatre are wheelchair accessible.
What accessibility options are there?
Accessible seating, including wheelchair and mobility-restricted seating and seats for companions, is available in the Theatre and is bought by choosing the Accessible filter on the Ticketek event page, subject to availability at the time of booking. The Centre is a Companion Card affiliate. Wheelchair access to the Theatre is at Door 1 on ground level, and via Door 3, Door 4 and Door 5 by way of the ramp that serves the Theatre Terrace. For events in the Theatre, a hearing assistance FM system can be tuned in at 88.1FM with your own analog FM receiver.
The Centre says retractable, tiered bleacher seating may be used at the very rear of the Theatre for select events, and patrons who book those seats must climb stairs. For event days, accessible parking must be pre-booked during business hours (Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5pm), through the Centre’s team on (08) 8208 2222 or an online enquiry. Have your Disability Parking Permit number ready; standard parking rates apply and spaces are subject to availability. The Theatre has a first aid room in its foyer.
What has not been confirmed?
As of 9 November 2026, the Centre has not published a support act or set times for Air Supply, and it has not announced extra tram services for the night. We will check the event page again closer to the show and update this guide if it changes. For the venue’s Park ‘n’ Ride rules, see our Park ‘n’ Ride guide.
