A static display of Pop Culture Memorabilia was on exhibition inside The SA Museum for visitors to
view and remenisce upon viewing various exbibits that they themselves may have had either during
their childhood or even their parents!
The grand finale of The Festival is The Ultimate Quiznight and now, in it's third year,
was a fantastic success and this year's event started with a message of awareness from
The Foundation for Australia's Most Endangered Species helping to save and protect
Australian Wildlife and Habitat. Special guest in attendance was Adelaide 36ers National Basketball League Forward and League MVP - Mr Mark Davis, who, with his own table of competitors, along with the capacity audience, simply had a great time with all the fun of the quiznight which included the now famous "sing along section" a real highlight for all that exercised the vocal chords to earn extra points during the event! |

| As the rounds counted down to the big finale, plenty of prizes were on offer and at the mid quiz break each table was given a selection of magician's baloons to create a creature and present it to the audience for the chance to win valuable points and prizes for each table of competitors. |
