About the Business
Carrick Hill is at a critically important moment in its life as a cultural and heritage site.

That same period has seen audiences and attitudes change enormously. Carrick Hill continues to evolve and adapt to the needs and expectations of our audiences, both existing and new, to ensure that it continues to welcome the people of South Australia as well as national and international visitors.
