Adelaide Writers’ Week Cancelled After Backlash Over Abdel-Fattah Disinvitation

Adelaide Writers’ Week 2026 was cancelled amid a mass walkout after the festival board disinvited Palestinian Australian author Randa Abdel-Fattah over “cultural sensitivities” following a Bondi attack. More than 180 authors and speakers withdrew, the board resigned (save for the city council representative), and Louise Adler, the director, also resigned. A new board led by Judy Potter was named to steer a scaled-back Adelaide Festival, with refunds for ticketholders. Abdel-Fattah rejected the board’s apology, calling the move racist and an attack on free speech; the government emphasized safeguarding the festival’s future.

Garden Nightmare: Adelaide Man's Terrifying Discovery in Spider Hole

An Adelaide Hills man discovered a small hole in his garden, sparking fear and curiosity among thousands online. Speculations arose that the hole could be the residence of either a trapdoor spider or a wolf spider, with some sharing their own encounters with these species. Trapdoor spiders live underground in burrows covered with doors made of leaves or sticks, while wolf spiders live on the ground in leaf litter or burrows. The lack of a door over the hole suggests it could be a trapdoor spider burrow.
