Music and dance under the stars


Festival Inside Out is Sydney Festival's newest addition to its annual free outdoor program.


Two of Australia's finest performing arts companies, the Australian Chamber Orchestra and Sydney Dance Company come together for a thrilling double bill.


Under the direction of Assistant Leader, Satu Vänskä, the Australian Chamber Orchestra performs a special Festival program created around Summer from Vivaldi's Four Seasons, before Sydney Dance Company takes to the stage for an explosive performance of 6 Breaths, Artistic Director Rafael Bonachela's stunningly athletic 2010 creation with music by Ezio Bosso.


In between, some of Western Sydney's brightest young talents join the Australian Chamber Orchestra in Thinking about Forever, a new composition by Matthew Hindson with choreography by Kay Armstrong. The work features youMove Company, Parramatta String Players and Department of Education Dance Off! students.


Bring a blanket and a picnic, settle back and soak up the best Sydney has to offer with music and dance on a summer evening under the stars.

Kreisler: Liebesleid
Vivaldi: Summer from The Four Seasons
Trad. Finnish: Antin Mikko

Ferrython

Venue


Sydney Harbour


View Map


Prices


FREE


This enormously popular Australia Day event sees Sydney’s favourite green and gold ferries carve up the harbour like watercraft possessed. Punters line the harbour foreshore to barrack on these robust old gals as they race from Circular Quay to Shark Island before crossing the finish line under the Harbour Bridge. 

Pack a picnic and prepare to cheer up a storm.

Australia Day Celebrations

Sydney will once again become the perfect playground for thousands of patriotic Aussies celebrating Australia Day on Wednesday 26 January.

Pay tribute to who we are as a nation among Sydney’s iconic landmarks – Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, Hyde Park or the city centre.
