Gather Round Your Footy Team

South Australian Tourism Commission

Footy fans are being encouraged to get up close to their favourite AFL teams and players with a series of Gather Round open trainings and clinics, as South Australia's Festival of Footy returns for 2026.

Locals and visitors alike can get along to more than two dozen open training sessions and footy clinics in a rare opportunity to connect with the best players from all clubs across the AFL.

The opportunity coincides with the release of a new travel app which will make it even easier for local and interstate footy fans to discover the best of the state and everything AFL Gather Round has to offer.
