Illuminate Adelaide, the South Australian capital’s winter festival, has unveiled its 2026 program.
Highlights include Canadian company Moment Factory’s Augmented Games at Adelaide Showgrounds, a larger-than-life digital gaming experience in which participants step into the games as players rather than wielding controllers from the sidelines; Digital Abyss at Immersive Light and Arts, a new work bringing underwater ecosystems to life and created by French digital artist Miguel Chevalier, Illuminate Adelaide’s 2026 artist-in-residence; and the third and final chapter of Adelaide Zoo’s night-time exploration of prehistoric worlds, Universal Kingdom: Ice Age, featuring illuminated mammoths, sabre-toothed tigers and their Australian megafauna equivalents such as diprotodon.
