School holiday events

School's out and Sydney has an almost endless variety of activities and attractions to entertain the kids at any time of the year.

During the Easter school holidays from 6-20 April, Sydney is home to one of the most popular family events in the year.  The annual Sydney Royal Easter Show at Sydney Olympic Park is jam-packed with activities for the kids. The show brings the best of the country to the city so take advantage of the opportunity to get up close to baby farm animals, meet the farmers and producers, taste fresh produce, buy show bags, watch the woodchop show and climb aboard a ride. If you're a kid, there's no better event.

Winter delivers a taste of alpine lifestyle at the Sydney Winter Festival, don't miss the highlight - the country's largest outdoor ice skating rink. In September/October, the Sydney Children's Festival bursts into venues across wider Sydney with music, theatre, circus and science events just for kids and at least half the events are free.

Christmas in Sydney means seafood and barbeques and the city aglow with baubles and fairy lights. Sing traditional carols with the kids in the Domain at Carols by Candlelight or oceanside at Carols by the Sea on Bondi Beach. Santa's in attendance at the Darling Harbour Christmas Concert or marvel at the the huge fireworks display at the New Year's Eve celebrations. Summer also means lots of outdoor and family events so don't miss the calendar of family entertainment at the Sydney Festival or line the harbour and prepare to cheer up a storm for the competing ferries in the Ferrython on Australia Day in January.
