Adelaide Airport has completed the first stage of its terminal expansion with the opening of six new stores.
The new stores are Penfolds Wine Bar and Kitchen, Boost Juice, Lego Kaboom, Airport Pharmacy, Soul Origin, and Precinct Adelaide Kitchen. They are located opposite gates 15 – 16.
Adelaide Airport had previously announced that Penfolds and Maggie Beer are some of the iconic homegrown Australian brands and identities which will form part of the terminal’s new retail and dining offering. In particular, the airport said Penfolds in-airport concept is the first of its kind globally. Besides these two stores, popular MasterChef Australia contestants Poh Ling Yeow and Callum Hann will each open their own restaurant.
Adelaide Airport believes that the addition of retailers such as Australian wine producer Penfolds will elevate visitors’ experience at the airport
Beyond that, the airport is also upgrading its international areas to provide a second and longer baggage belt for arrivals, a larger area for emigration and immigration processing, expanded security screening, a larger duty-free area for arrivals and departures, as well as more dining and retail options.
Virgin Australia will also be opening an expanded lounge for customers in April. The airline has moved from its current lounge to a temporary pop-up lounge in the new retail precinct, for the construction to take place.
Commenting on the expansion, Adelaide Airport Managing Director, Mark Young, said it was exciting to see the hard work and years of planning starting to come to fruition.
“We think brands like Penfolds and later Maggie Beer will make Adelaide Airport a destination both for travellers and for South Australians looking for a unique dining and food experience,” he said.
“The presence of iconic South Australian brands as well as the ultimate location of the Vickers Vimy aircraft on the ground floor of the expanded terminal will deliver a real sense of place.”
