Sports are very popular in Australia. We enjoy surfing, kayaking, sailing, cycling, swimming, rugby, bushwalking, canoeing, horse-riding, rock-climbing, football, cricket, and basketball.

Favourite cultural events include large music festivals, New Year’s Eve, Sculpture by the Sea, and Mardi Gras. Refer to the City of Sydney’s official event guide, ‘What’s On Sydney’.

Sydney has many attractions including beautiful beaches like Bondi and Manly; the stunning Sydney harbour with the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge; peaceful walks through the Botanical Gardens or national parks; or travel just outside the city to the Blue Mountains.
