Our city boasts some of South Australia’s most spectacular scenery and provides an ideal setting for place and business activations.
Activations are best described as temporary, short term commercial activities run over multiple days or a period of time.
Place and business activations temporarily transform public spaces to create diverse and vibrant destinations, offer unique experiences and stimulate economic benefit for the region.
The SandBAR is part of council's annual ENCORE Summer (Place and Business Activation) Program.
Due to the construction of the Witton Bluff Base Trail, the approved activation site for SandBAR, at the corner of Beach Road and The Esplanade Christies Beach, will be unavailable during the upcoming 2024/25 summer season.
Proposed temporary location
In response to the closure, The SandBAR, has requested to relocate temporarily to a portion of land opposite 13 The Esplanade for the 2024/25 summer.
The SandBAR intends to return to the original site once the Witton Bluff Base Trail construction is completed.
About the SandBAR
