September events in Sydney
We're here to help your social life blossom in the first month of spring
Throw off your doonas and discard your scarves: spring has arrived. September heralds all kinds of exciting events, from major arts festivals like Sydney Fringe to some of the city’s favourite fun runs. It’s also prime time to explore Sydney’s best parks and seaside spots like Manly and Cronulla before the summer tourist horde descends.
Start spring by seeking out exciting dishes from the best Filipino restaurants in Sydney or find refreshment as the days warm up with these very cool frozen desserts.
And don't forget, it’s Father’s Day on Sunday, September 1 and school holidays from September 28.
RECOMMENDED: The most beautiful bathrooms in Sydney.

Making Art Public: 50 Years of Kaldor Public Art Projects
Fifty years ago, John Kaldor changed Australian art history when he invited international artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude to Sydney to wrap the coastline with vast swathes of white fabric. To mark the project's 50th anniversary, he's inviting British artist Michael Landy to create a retrospective exhibition.
Then
White Rabbit is celebrating some of its finest moments at the end of its first decade. The exhibition will bring together some of the gallery's earliest shown works, alongside others that haven't been exhibited before. There'll be more than 60 works on display and, as always, entry is totally free.
