From September 25, i.e. from next Sunday until October 3, one can now fully immerse oneself in German culture in Adelaide. The festivities, with many events, were organized by a committee founded by Reinhard Struve, a well-known representative of the German community in South Australia, and the recently appointed Honorary Consul of the Federal Republic of Germany in SA, Matt Williams.
I spoke with Reinhard Struve, the initiator of the festival.
There will also be celebrations to mark German Unity Day on October 3 and 70 years of diplomacy between Australia and Germany. Other exciting events include a German film night, a day of business, science and innovation, a lecture on the origins, history and spread of the Yiddish (Jewish-German) language, a cooking evening with a tarte flambée masterclass, a book reading with German author Jo Schueck, a historical walk in the beautiful Barossa Valley and an Oktoberfest at the Prancing Pony brewery.
