The 1969 Adelaide Carnival was the 17th Australian rules football interstate carnival and the last to be held in South Australia. Instead of 'Carnival', it was also known as the Australian National Football Championships.
Four teams competed in the carnival, South Australia, the VFL, Tasmania and Western Australia. The VFL finished on top of the table after winning all of their games. Peter Hudson kicked 17 goals in the carnival, the next best was Austin Robertson with 15.
