Update: To protect our park after heavy rain in Rushcutters Bay, our Christmas concert scheduled for Sunday 8 December 6-8pm has been cancelled.

We apologise for any inconvenience and encourage you to join us at our Christmas concerts next weekend in Glebe (Saturday 14 December) and Alexandria (Sunday 15 December). See sydneychristmas.com.au for details.

It’s time to dust off your reindeer ears, put on your party shoes and kick off Christmas at our free concert in Rushcutters Bay.  

Justine Clarke will host the evening. Join Zindzi & the Zillionaires, The Quokkas, The Beanies and Brown Sugar to sing and dance in the spirit of Sydney Christmas.

All performers will sing carols. Santa will also make a special guest appearance.

There’ll be free craft activities, table tennis and giant Jenga, and other games for the kids (and kids at heart).  

Our charity partner The Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation will receive a $5 donation for a photo with Santa. They’ll also sell tickets for their Play for Purpose raffle and run Spin to Win giveaways.

Pack your picnic rug and get in early for the best spots. There'll be a barbecue fundraiser by Tennis World Group and Sharon Kwan Kitchen, Gelato Messina and Bar Coco Churros food trucks. You can also bring your own picnic.

Pets are not permitted.

The closest train stations are Kings Cross station a 7-minute walk away or Edgecliff station a 14-minute walk. Visit Transport NSW or call 131 500 to plan your trip.
