Northgate is a new suburb north of Adelaide, South Australia. A petition was made in 1998 in a joint venture between the State Government and AVJennings to develop the area and annex it from the existing suburb of Northfield. It is approximately a 10 minute drive from the Adelaide City Council area and is currently undergoing the second stage of development on land previously owned by the South Australian Department of Agriculture.

The suburb itself is considered to be bounded by Grand Junction Road to the north, Fosters Road to the East, Folland Avenue to the South and Dumfries Avenue to the West. The inclusion of Dumfries Avenue as a boundary, which does not connect directly to Grand Junction Road, was by design and intended to stop traffic from using it as a bypass from other roads.
