The Adelaide Film Festival is being moved away from busy March.
The Film Festival and another event, the Festival of Ideas, will be held in October, aimed at complementing each other.
The Minister assisting the Arts, Chloe Fox, said the Festival of Ideas has been a biennial event since 1999.
“The Festival of Ideas helps to reinforce South Australia’s reputation as a cultural, creative city,” she said.
The Film Festival will be held from October 10-20 and the Festival of Ideas from October 17-20.
Former ABC executive Amanda Duthie, who is now director of the Adelaide Film Festival, also will be CEO of the Festival of the Ideas.
Adelaide has been grappling with issues such as accommodation overload and events clashes with many of its festivals and key events overlapping in autumn.
