As the sun starts to set later in the day and foliage returns to trees, the country ignites with a warm buzz that can only mean something exciting is brewing. Not only is the warmer weather approaching, but we’re also coming up to one of the most exciting times of the year. At the end of September, Swan Street in Richmond lights up with enthusiasm, thanks to the footy Grand Final. Then, in October, Sydney shares the same eagerness and long-awaited anticipation for the NRL Grand Final at Olympic Park.
This year, music fans will also get their share of excitement with the Coldplay Australia tour kicking off at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium. Then, Kid Laroi makes his way back Down Under in November, travelling state-to-state as part of his epic global tour.
