Adelaide - City of Small Gods |
We have an established Terry Pratchett & Discworld fan group in Adelaide called The City of Small Gods, which is open to anyone who would like to come - you don't have to live in Adelaide or even South Australia, or even be a Discworld fan, but that's mostly where our events will be held, and we do like discussing Pratchett's works.
We are hosting the South Australian Premiere of Terry Pratchett's "Troll Bridge" by Snowgum Films, on Saturday 21st September at the Mercury Cinema.
This is your only opportunity to see Troll Bridge on the big screen in Adelaide, so don't miss out!

Our well loved and long overdue Science Fiction and Fantasy quiz is back! Join us on Saturday October 19 for a night of trivia about your favourite books, shows, comics, movies and games

Our (semi-) regular social meetings are generally held on the last Thursday of the month at a pub or restaurant in Adelaide. We have dinner at 6.30pm followed by games until 9pm.
Every few months, we have a full day's worth of board games at La Scala Cafe, 169 Unley Rd, Unley in the function room starting at 10am. Check the calendar below for the date of the next event.
In addition to the above, we will occasionally have other events to go and see plays by Unseen Theatre Company, book discussions on various novels by Terry Pratchett, craft, chain maille or costuming workshops or other fun social activities. See our upcoming events for further info, and join the mailing list or Facebook group to get the details.
We'll try to keep this page up to date (no promises!) but always check emails on the mailing list for further details of these events.

Round World Events SA Inc is a not-for-profit incorporated association whose aim is to run fun social Pratchett-themed events for people in South Australia. We have run two Australian Discworld Conventions: Unseen University Convivium in 2012 and Nullus Anxietas VI - The Discworld Grand Tour in 2017.
