The Adelaide Mini Con was a Star Trek: TOS Australian convention in June 1978.
It was held in Adelaide, South Australia, by the SASTREK Star Trek fan club.
Jenny McLean described it as a fan gathering spent watching "the marathon at Channel 9 studios" with Diane Marchant and others, running out of petrol, using CBs to get help, having a chicken dinner, going to a hall and seeing the "20-minute version of SW," listening to a talk by Colin Norris "a ufologist", participating and viewing the costume contest, a disco and dancing, then going to another fan's house when the hall closed, then flying home.
