The Oval is a central point between Adelaide’s parklands, the city and North Adelaide, and can accommodate close to 34,000. The Oval is divided into three main grandstands being the Bradman Stand, the Chappell Stands and the western grandstand which was opened to the public just before the Ashes tour in 2010.
The Oval’s distinctive Moreton Bay fig trees were planted in the 1890s and remain a historical backdrop to the northern mound, as does the Edwardian scoreboard which was erected in 1911.
With four flood lights, Adelaide Ovals playing dimensions are 169m x 129m fence to fence.
