It’s a big summer arts festival featuring the best of local and international talent, and attracts around a million people every year (spread out over the many different venues and performances).

The programme is known for being fresh and modern, and a whole lot of fun.

And there’s even a whole bunch of free events, for those backpackers feeling somewhat out of pocket.

Sydney Festival 2009 runs from the 10th to the 31st of January.
