Sydney Festival 2024: Best Of The Fest

Sydney Festival 2024 will run from 5 to 28 January across the city. Enjoy the festival of Australia. 

Embracing the art of summer since 1977, Sydney Festival is a city-wide celebration of culture, creativity and the questioning mind. From the streets to the beach, in stately theatres and in secret basements, it animates locations across Greater Sydney with a trailblazing free and ticketed program of theatre, music, dance, visual art and all the experimental in-between places of live performance.

As a dedicated commissioner of new Australian works, Sydney Festival showcases our nation’s diverse storytellers to the world, whilst drawing the world’s finest artists to Sydney.

A sizeable disposable income shouldn’t be a barrier to squeezing the most out of the city’s artsy and cultural offerings (especially in this economy). The city is set to sizzle when Sydney Festival fires up the summertime revelry with three big weeks of events. There are more than 130 things to choose from, with a heap of free events to pick from (and a bunch more that won’t cost you an arm and a leg, also). 

Sydney’s iconic harbour will take centre stage, with works and events presented on (and in celebration of) water, from January 5-28. If you’re staying home for any reason, the Sydney Festival At Home Program has been created so that anyone, anywhere, on any device can discover and enjoy Sydney Festival content any time. It features an evolving mix of live streams, work from emerging artists and more – and it is all totally free to view.
