ADL Fashion Week 2025 is upon us, which means the return of Rundle Mall’s Shopping Weekend.
Held across three days from Friday 10 to Sunday 12 October, the event allows shoppers to immerse themselves in everything Rundle Mall has to offer, including fashion-filled experiences, offers and several surprises.
This year’s event introduces the Rundle Mall Social Club (RMSC), a tennis-themed activation taking over Gawler Place with a custom-built tennis court and club-style experience open to all those who spend money in the Mall.
Shoppers who spend more than $150 at Rundle Mall retailers will be rewarded with gift cards from a custom vending machine when they visit RMSC. The gift cards range from $100 to $1,000 and feature brands such as MECCA, David Jones, R.M. Williams, Haigh’s Chocolates, Endota Spa, and Rundle Mall.
“It’s Game, Set, Reward – everyone wins this year at the Rundle Mall Social Club,” says Andrew White, Adelaide Economic Development Agency’s Executive Manager, Rundle Mall
“This is different to previous years - we're rewarding shoppers instantly with a range of gift cards for them to use at a variety of our 1,000-plus stores. We want them to return to their favourite flagships and boutiques to stock up on more of the best brands and items.”

There will also be a stack of pop-up stores and stalls throughout the Mall, with Rundle Mall Ice Creamery setting up shop outside of Wollworths for the weekend. Collaborating with C9 Chocolate & Gelato, shoppers can enjoy an array of flavours, including the specially created Beehive Caramel Crunch – a homage to the over century-old Beehive Corner building.
South Aussie female-founded brand Summer Skin will be showcasing their natural and vegan self-tanning range, premium watchmaker Swatch returns with their ‘Moon Swatch’ collection and lululemon is hosting a Run Club in partnership with the Rundle Mall Social Club. Meet fellow runners at 7am on Friday 10 October for a 5km loop of the city that ends at RMSC with complimentary drinks from local brand ALTR and live music from DJ Leah.
The Richmond Hotel is also getting in on the act, with The Loft café outside the building open from Wednesday 8 to Sunday 12 October serving up everything from iced coffees and iced matcha to croquettes, parmesan fries, and pizza.
Don’t forget the Mall is dog pet-friendly, with C9 also dishing out frozen Pup Pops for your four-legged friend.
More brands will be announced in the coming days as Rundle Mall Shopping Weekend aims to bring shoppers together and highlight why South Australia is a retail paradise.
