Hosted by media personality Jess Adamson, throughout the evening you'll be able to enjoy fine award-winning South Australian wine from Howard Vineyard, Coopers beer, and a delicious three-course meal - while hearing the enthralling tales from an exciting line-up of Australian sporting identities, and networking with past and present players, alumni, Olympians and the wider Adelaide University sporting community.
As we raise funds for the Waite Oval Redevelopment, we invite attendees to bid during the Magain Online Auction (beginning prior to the event and finishing on the night) and the Magain Live Auction hosted by Platinum Sponsor Magain Commercial, buy bottles from the spectacular wine wall, taste the Adelaide University Sport Seasons Gin at the Prohibition Gin tasting bar (and buy a bottle!), and buy tickets for fantastic raffle prizes.
Tickets are on sale until midnight Wednesday 30 September.
