destination-NSW-300x102NSW Minister for Trade, Tourism and Major Events and Minister for Sport Stuart Ayres said, “Sydney continues to set the benchmark as Australia’s major events capital, securing some of the world’s most prestigious events, in fact over half of the major events during the month will take place during a packed 8-day period from August 20.

 

“The Bledisloe Cup and the College Football Sydney Cup alone are anticipated to attract more than 30,000 domestic and international visitors to Sydney – an influx which is estimated to inject more than $17 million in visitor expenditure into the local economy.”

 
Destination NSW Chief Executive Officer Sandra Chipchase said that major sporting events, musicals and exhibitions continue to attract visitors to our State where they can enjoy a range of other great experiences Sydney and NSW has to offer.

 

“There’s no better place to take a break than in Sydney, and with a packed calendar of events in August to suit any taste, it really is a great time to stay and play. In addition to these spectacular events, we also have world class hotels, dining, shopping, and a range of breathtaking natural attractions in and around the city and across the state for visitors to explore.” said Ms. Chipchase.

 

From fashion to sport, entertainment and more, the calendar of major Sydney events in August has something for every visitor.
