Gary Marocchi to Join Adelaide City’s 80th Anniversary Gala

Adelaide City Football Club is proud to confirm that former Australian international Gary Marocchi will be in attendance at the Club’s 80th Anniversary Gala.

A midfielder of real quality, Marocchi was a key part of Adelaide City during the late 1980s and early 1990s — a period that helped define the Club’s standards and identity within Australian football.

His performances at club level earned him selection for the Socceroos, underlining his standing as one of the game’s top players of his era.

For Adelaide City, players like Marocchi helped build the foundation the Club stands on today — setting standards, driving success, and representing the badge with distinction.

Marocchi's return for the 80th Anniversary Gala offers a chance to reconnect with that era and celebrate the people who shaped the Club’s history.

More legends will be announced in the lead-up to the event, as Adelaide City prepares to celebrate 80 years of football.
