ABOUT US

For over 70 years The Croatian Club Adelaide Inc. – The Dom – has been a home away from home for the Croatians of Adelaide.  A place to socialise, sing, dance, learn and play.  Established in 1950 by Croatian immigrants new to South Australia as a not-for-profit organisation, the Club has grown and expanded from humble beginnings holding dances and fundraisers at various venues around Adelaide, to the purchase of the old Salvation Army Citadel in Bowden and the building of the current venue in Brompton. Various Croatian cultural associations including Soccer, HFS Lenek, Katarina Zrinski, Hrvatska Škola, as well as various political parties and associations (past and present) have all contributed to the evolution of our home base, and our growing community. 

OUR COMMUNITY

As the centre of Croatian culture in South Australia, The Croatian Club is committed to the preservation of Croatian cultural heritage in Australia, Croatian traditions, customs and language. We do so for the benefit of all 'Croat Australians', as well as their friends and the wider community in which we reside. The Dom has always embraced cultural diversity, and as such warmly welcomes all those wishing to share and enjoy our unique heritage.  So join us for dinner on a Friday night, a fundraising lunch on a Sunday, a game of bocce, or any one of our upcoming events. Better yet, get involved with one of our cultural associations such as folklore dancing, language school or the women’s auxiliary group.

OUR VISION

The Dom is the centre of Croatian culture in South Australia and is committed to the preservation of the Croatian cultural heritage, traditions, customs, and language for the benefit of all 'Croat Australians' and their friends through social inclusion. 

WHAT WE DO

The Adelaide Croatian Club has always been a second home to its members, embracing social inclusion and multiculturism from the very beginning.  The Dom values the cultural diversity inherent in our community and welcomes anyone who wants to join us in sharing our 'Croat Australian' traditions.  So join us for dinner on a Friday night, a fundraising lunch on a Sunday, a game of bocce, or any one of our upcoming events.
