The Festival has announced that Sefton will stay on for an extra year and will direct the 2016 festival.
‘The Adelaide Festival role really is a dream job; the organisation provides the platform and support to bring in all the greatest and most adventurous work from around the world. It gives me the freedom to create genuinely unique events. My family and I love it here in Adelaide and we are all looking forward to staying here for the extra year,’ Sefton said in a statement.
