Due to the success of the temporary pop-up activation in Port Noarlunga in previous years, we are returning to the area, however in a new promenade location. The proposed new pop-up site is located 40 metres north of the previous activation location and will form part of the ENCORE Summer Activation Program.

The Port Noarlunga Activation is proudly produced by the Port Noarlunga Hotel, a well-established brick-and-mortar business located within the Port Noarlunga precinct.

This activation is designed to attract both locals and tourists to Port Noarlunga, activating the sandy beach and promenade with unique seating, food, and beverage offerings. The focus is on creating relaxed, memorable experiences by the ocean, the heart of what makes Port Noarlunga special.

Throughout the season, the space will host a variety of sub-events that celebrate the area’s diverse offerings with opportunities for local service providers to trial new ideas.

The activation will support the local evening economy by providing a relaxed entertainment option beyond dining alone. Local community groups will be offered dedicated spaces for events and activations, and the program will feature live music, local artists, wellness sessions like sunset yoga, and other unique experiences.

Rather than a party atmosphere, the activation promotes relaxation and connection to the natural beauty of the foreshore. Responsible service will be a priority, with drinks contained within the designated area.
