Help us present an arts and entertainment program that celebrates summer across Sydney and plays a vital role in the recovery and joy of shared, live, experiences for our city and our country.
Sydney Festival acknowledges the 29 clans of the Eora Nation, the Traditional Owners of the land on which the Festival takes place.
We pay our respects to Elders past and present, and recognise the continuing connection to lands, waters and communities.
