At the Wheatsheaf Hotel - or as most people call it, 'The Wheaty' - simplicity is everything.
A beloved Adelaide institution and live music hub, especially for folk, roots, blues, and acoustic acts, The Wheaty has hosted decades of local, national, and international talent. You won't find pokies or flashy cocktails - just real beer, independent wine, unusual whisk(e)y, live music, and public art. With the iconic band room, intimate front bar, cozy couches, beer garden, and winter fires, The Wheaty is a welcoming space to discover new music and enjoy unforgettable performances.
