See Adelaide in the past.

Have you ever wished you were part of a historic moment of the past, like when The Beatles visited Adelaide Town Hall? Or when King William Street was lined with horse drawn trams? Do you ever think about what it must have felt like to be there witnessing history take place?


The Adelaide Time Machine app is here to do just that; to take you back to some of Adelaide’s most iconic locations and events. The app’s self-guided walk takes you through the centre of the city on a journey of Adelaide’s past, where you’ll unlock historical photos at the 16 locations along the way.

How to use this app

This app requires you to physically visit locations in the city in order to unlock historical photos.
