End the Santos link with the Tour Down Under

Posted on: Tue 25 Aug 2020

In January of next year Adelaide will host The Tour Down Under cycling event.

It is run by Events SA, part of the South Australian Tourism Commission.

Since 2010, the race’s major naming rights sponsor has been Santos, an oil and gas company that has ongoing ambitions to expand its fossil fuel operations.

Fossil Free SA has launched the #BreakAwayFromGas campaign to pressure Events SA to end the Santos sponsorship of the Tour Down Under.

To find out more, Barometer’s Des Lawrence spoke to Robyn Waite of Fossil Free SA.
