Episode Details

Adelaide’s Supercars event may soon gobble up an extra 142,920 square meters of parkland — sparking outrage, environmental alarms, and questions about a mysterious pre-race motorsport event. While officials say the space will be used for parking and remain unfenced, locals are worried about damage to sensitive habitats like the Chequered Copper Butterfly zone. The Lord Mayor called the expansion “a bit of a shock,” highlighting the council’s limited power over declared major events. With MotoGP looming in 2027 and ongoing protests over parkland losses — including tree removal for a golf course — residents are fighting to protect these green spaces as tourism dollars pour in.
