In the south-western corner in the belt of parklands that surrounded Adelaide’s city centre is '''Holdfast Oval'''. In the warmer Adelaide months it was host to local grade cricket matches. It has one small building near the edge of the ground which acts as the pavilion for the players, along with a small bar for patrons. There are a series of benches in front of it that span that western side. The rest of the oval is surrounded by grass and tall native trees<ref >[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-veritas/c/PV6pViYmqA8/m/z02MS3QwAgAJ "Howzat"].

'''Rundle Street''' is the main linear entertainment district in the city center. It is a wide, luxuriously paved walkway that is 2.5 kilometres long, with tracks for a hover light rail system that runs down the middle of the "street". On each side of the walkway are door to door entertainment establishments, including bars, restaurants, nightclubs, karaoke venues and tattoo parlors (with questionable hygiene practices)<ref name="shoreleavetraditions2" /><ref name="naughtyteller">[https://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=Geoffrey_Teller#Medical_History "Geoffrey Teller - Medical Record"]</ref>. The eastern end of Rundle street is considered to be upmarket, while the western end is known for having a "seedier" reputation. Just before sunset the street becomes busy with many people making their way to the area, making the street noisy from people's chatter. <ref name="shoreleavetraditions">[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-veritas/usJgNwIaBHg/tkZ923ySAwAJ "Shore leave Traditions - Part 1"].
