Thursday  I  Mount Lofty Estate 

Delivered in partnership with Adelaide Hills Tourism, the CAUTHE 2026 Conference Dinner is designed as a communal and participative experience that reflects the conference theme of cohesion, sustainability, and connection through tourism, hospitality and events.

Set at the iconic Mount Lofty Estate, just 25 minutes from the Adelaide CBD, the evening will celebrate South Australia’s food, culture and community through a curated, immersive dining experience that invites delegates to connect directly with place, people and provenance.

The dinner will unfold in and around Mount Lofty House, a property with over 175 years of history and now a five-star boutique hotel, home to a three-hat fine dining restaurant and recently recognised as TripAdvisor #1 Luxury Hotel in Australia & the South Pacific 2025. Perched high above the Piccadilly Valley, the setting provides a spectacular backdrop for an evening that brings together South Australia’s stories, flavours and hospitality leaders.

In partnership with Adelaide Hills Tourism, the dinner will spotlight the region’s makers, producers and experiences, offering delegates a meaningful and memorable closing moment to CAUTHE 2026.
