Worked up an appetite after a full day at the Festival? We’ve partnered with some of Sydney’s top restaurants to bring you some delicious options close to our venues. See them all here.
Our city in summer...
Whether you are a local or from out of town, January is the best time to be in Sydney. Summer in Sydney means days at the beach, picnics in the park and balmy evenings being thrilled by exciting Festival events.
From our pop up bars to the more formal setting of the Opera House and everywhere in between, Sydney + summer = Sydney Festival.
Make the most of the Festival month with a long weekend at one of our partner hotels. See a few shows (remember we have a discount when you see three or more), and grab a meal at one of our restaurant partners.
There is an array of free Festival events day and night to tickle any fancy.
Come to the Festival in January and celebrate Sydney in summer.
