FILMING IN SA

From salt lakes to moonscapes and dense green forests to rugged desert ranges, a sophisticated CBD and spectacular heritage buildings, dramatic coastlines and beaches galore, it’s all on the doorstep of South Australia’s capital city, Adelaide.

One day, multiple locations: SA makes it happen

Whatever look your project needs, you’ll find it in South Australia.

Adelaide’s city backdrop features heritage sandstone, ultra-modern architectural design and gritty urban laneways;

Within a 20 minute drive from Adelaide’s CBD you’ll find rugged coastline, rural settings and dramatic bushland and forests;

An hour’s drive north, south and east of Adelaide sit famous wine regions – the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Clare Valley;

Venture further and explore the world-renowned Flinders Ranges, Kangaroo Island, Limestone Coast, Coober Pedy and the Murray River.

“Coober Pedy in the South Australian desert was a totally out of this world filming location like nothing I’ve seen on Earth – it was like we really were on Mars! I now know why so many films and TV shows have chosen to shoot in South Australia; it truly is a beautiful and unique part of the world.”
— William Shatner, Stars on Mars

“Shooting Mortal Kombat in South Australia made for an ideal filmmaking experience. The diversity of locations we were able to find – from the deserts, to the lush forests, to urban streetscapes – was perfectly suited for our production.”
— James Wan, producer, Mortal Kombat
