The Sydney Festival is an on going festival that goes from the first saturday in January (the 5th) to the day after Australia Day. (the 27th) It is an arts festival that features music, dance, theatre and local artwork. It is a big celebration of the culture here.
We attended a concert at the Domain, which is a park here, and it was great. It was amazing to see the turn out. Everyone just came to the park with blankets and wine and enjoyed the show, even though it wasnt exactly a big name performer. It seems to me that your average australian is just someone who enjoys the arts, and having a good time, and looks just like you and me.
Travel wise this is a great city for public transportation. We have used trains, ferries, busses and just about everything in between to get around. Since events are all around the city we used a couple of modes of transportation to get to the different events, mostly the train.
