Hope you all had a fantastic Australia Day yesterday! 🇦🇺

In the last edition, I removed the price of events to avoid triggering spam words.

Well after hearing feedback about how much you loved having prices included, I created a workaround! Prices will now appear as “10AUD” or “Zero Charge,” highlighted in green.

I’ve also shortened event descriptions to make the emails more concise and reader-friendly. This change is designed to make Adelaide Insider easier to digest while encouraging those interested in events to click ‘info” to learn more.

There’s a poll at the end of the email if you’d like to share any additional feedback.

Have a great week 👋
