There’s a lot of autumnal fun going down in the Harbour City this weekend, so we’ll lay out the perfect itinerary and you can take or leave what you like.
We’d suggest starting your Friday with a visit to Haymarket’s Neon Playground, then heading to Stickybeak Festival for a delicious feast before catching a gig courtesy of Great Southern Nights.
On Saturday, start with a market meander or breakfast at one of Sydney’s best cafés, catch a midday movie courtesy of the Alliance Française French Film Festival, then head to Surry Hills’ Crown Street for the final Sydney Streets street party of this summer/ autumn season. Once you’ve fuelled up (Crown Street will be buzzing with street food stalls, or you can check our guide to the best restaurants in Surry Hills if you’d rather have a sit-down meal), head to the Hollywood Quarter, which is playing host to an epic free gig trail.
If indoor activities are more your speed this weekend, check out the Alliance Française French Film Festival program, or head to one of our city’s best galleries – Cao Fei’s immersive futuristic exhibition is live at the Art Gallery of NSW for just a few more weeks.
