Welcome to the Official Schoolies Festival™ site for South Australia.
Encounter Youth hosts the official, annual Schoolies Festival™ held in Warland Reserve, Victor Harbor.
We’ve been made aware of other sources who are parading as official hosts, so make sure you’re accessing the official and trusted information you need from this website only.
Since 1999, we have designed the Schoolies Festival™ for the entire Year 12 cohort, utilising the help of 550 Encounter Youth Green Team volunteers. We want you to avoid any confusion and misinformation during the lead up to the weekend, and we look forward to helping you celebrate in November.

Schoolies Festival™ Victor Harbor
In 1999, Encounter Youth began coordinating a community response to encourage school leavers to party safely and minimise the impact on the local Victor Harbor community. What began as a chaotic mass gathering has been transformed into a structured and organised three-day event known today as Schoolies Festival™.
Encounter Youth’s Green Team volunteers will be around the entire weekend at Schoolies Festival™. They’re on-hand to provide you with any information you need and any support you require. Their goal is to ensure you have a great time celebrating!
A FEW HELPFUL TIPS…
You will need to purchase a Victor Harbor Schoolies Festival™ ticket from Encounter Youth to gain access to the party.
Bring your ticket and valid photo ID to the Ticketing & Wristband Collection Area, and we’ll swap for your official schoolies wristband for entry into Schoolies Festival™.
