This is Sydney in Summer

Every January, Sydney celebrates culture and big ideas with the Sydney Festival. From 8 to 26 January there are around 370 performances and 100 events performed by over 700 artists in more than 30 venues. The program ranges from circus and cabaret over theatre and dance to opera, classical and contemporary music.
There are a number of free concerts and family events all around the city. Throughout January the Festival Village is home to The Spiegeltent with burlesque and music in Hyde Park, and the Festival Bar features bands and DJs until late at night.
