Scalding hot tea incoming from Sydney Festival HQ.
Dip your biscuit in this, culture-gulpers: Sydney Festival dates are locked in for 8 – 25 January, 2026.
This summer will be the first Sydney Festival under the stewardship of Festival Director Kris Nelson, and the fiftieth Sydney Festival since we began Sydney Festivaling, so to speak, back in 1976.
Here's how to start prepping:
- Subscribe to the Buzz – our monthly newsletter – for announcements, program guidance, fun stuff and sometimes free stuff.
- Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube – for gorgeous images and videos, important info in bite-sized formats, and behind-the-scenes action as the Festival takes shape.
- Sign up to get a copy of the 2026 Festival brochure sent right to your door – for those who appreciate a hearty page-flick, or love to use a highlighter (sign-ups open soon).
