Tribute Act Heaven
Adelaide's tribute scene is having an absolute moment. The Beatles Anthology at Norwood Concert Hall offers the full Fab Four experience, while those wanting something quirkier can catch The Man In Black (With a Ukulele) at Milledges – because who doesn't want to hear Johnny Cash classics reimagined on four strings?
For the ladies, The LadyBeatles at Arkaba Hotel flips the script with an all-female Beatles tribute, proving the songs work brilliantly regardless of who's singing them.
