Plan a Sydney stay around the confirmed festival period, then choose the nights and locations that match the published programme. A festival-wide date window does not mean every installation or performance runs every night.
Circular Quay and The Rocks can suit harbour-focused evenings, while a CBD base can work for a mixed programme. Keep room cancellation terms and late-night transport in mind. Check official route, access and ticket information when the programme is published.
