Take an inside look at Adelaide’s street art through the work of locally-raised artist Jimmy C, with sweet snacks along the way!

Operated By:

Flamboyance Tours highlights the works of Adelaide-raised, London-based artist Jimmy C (James Cochran) among other local artists on this unique Adelaide street art tour, where along the way you’ll chow down on sweet eats across Chinatown!

Along this two-hour walk, learn about how Jimmy C developed his talent for inspiring work, and appreciate his unique ‘drip-style’ technique as you view his pieces across the city centre. See his collaborations with other artists as you first wander through the East End, before moving on to varied local street art and wandering through Chinatown. 

You’ll learn about Jimmy’s key collaborators to gain a broader context of Adelaide art, and understand how different styles create unique fusion. After getting our information straight from Jimmy C himself, we’re proud to call him one of our own!

But this isn’t just a street art tour – you’ll enjoy this as an Adelaide street art and food tour, where along the way you’ll stop for a few sweet morsels! Sample some of Adelaide’s best local foodie gems as you get a glimpse into Chinatown through its food, and be inspired to explore further after the tour finishes.

There’s always more to explore, so we give you extra information on Jimmy C works and a link to the Adelaide Fringe Street Art Explosion map via email after the tour.

– Ubers/taxis are also frequent.
– The closest transport is catching a free city bus (either the 98 or 99 loop) to Stop B1 on East Terrace (98A/99A) or Stop R1 on North Terrace (98C/99C), and walking a short distance.
