Hilltop Hoods Will Get Their Own Lane In Adelaide

Hilltop Hoods will score a prime piece of Adelaide real estate later this year, recognition of their record-smashing feats in Australia. The City of Adelaide today (March 5) announced Clubhouse Lane, a spot just off Hindley Street in the CBD, would be renamed as Hilltop Hoods Lane, one of the ultimate honors for these homegrown heroes.

With 2025’s Fall From The Light , the act landed their seventh No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, for their seventh leader (and sixth straight)  —  the most by an Australian group, placing them ahead of AC/DC, Powderfinger, Cold Chisel and Silverchair. Also, their 2003 recording “Nosebleed Section,” from The Calling , the first Australian hip-hip album to be certified platinum, is registered with the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia .

“From early gigs at the Worldsend Hotel and Adelaide UniBar to performing for crowds of 50,000 adoring fans across the globe, Hilltop Hoods embody a familiar Adelaide truth — that great talent starts local and can reach audiences worldwide,” reads a statement from the City of Adelaide. “Their impact on Australian music is undeniable.” Hilltop Hoods become the sixth act to receive a City of Music laneway honor in the South Australian capital, joining Sia Furler, Cold Chisel, No Fixed Address, Paul Kelly and The Angels.
