Firstival

Published on 02 June 2026

Firstival is back this July, bringing hundreds of fun and unique events to South Australia’s public libraries!

Now in its fourth year, Firstival invites people of all ages to try something new. It is a reminder for us all to reconnect with our curiosity, to book out some time in our busy lives to do something different. Because at any age, in any walk of life, learning does wonders for our wellbeing.

Firstival runs July 1-31 and is a diverse program featuring opportunities for connection, discussion and thrilling moments of discovery. There really is something for everyone!
