Discover one of Australia’s most cosmopolitan cities! If you don’t know Sydney, welcome to the playground for your senses. Endless adventure and experiences await you.
From the Sydney Opera House and sparkling waterways to fabulous beaches, delicious food and blockbuster shows, Sydney’s diverse offerings will delight you. Climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Take a cruise on the harbour. Explore national parks and meet incredible wildlife.
Whether you extend your trip before or after the conference, we hope you make time to have an adventure while in Sydney. Choose from a range of harbour cruises, including lunch cruises, tall ships, and an Aboriginal cultural heritage cruise. Boating is popular, too, if you know how to steer a ship. If seeing native wildlife up-close entices you, then hop on a ferry to Taronga Zoo. You will get to enjoy the sights of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge along the way.
If you’re more of a land lover, walking is a wonderful way to view the harbour, also known as Port Jackson. Choose from various walks offering superb views of Sydney’s famous landmarks. One of the best city walks is from Woolloomooloo to Barangaroo, stopping at Mrs Macquarie’s Chair for that perfect postcard selfie.
Spot native wildlife at Sydney Harbour National Park, which includes The Heads, dramatic sandstone cliffs at the harbour entrance that protect the surrounding harbour islands. Pockets of bushland are home to colourful birds, such as rainbow lorikeets and crimson rosellas. And you can even see little penguins near Manly wharf!
