Winter is well and truly here, and if you’re keen to embrace festive energy in Sydney, you don’t need to look too far. Just across the bridge in North Sydney (steps away from Victoria Cross Metro Station), a very wintery fiesta is going down for ten magical days – complete with a 20-metre toboggan slide and 50 tonnes of real snow. Yes, you’re reading that right.
Kicking off on Friday, June 27, the Greenwood’s Snow Festival will see the sprawling North Sydney venue transformed into a winter wonderland – with a program of seasonal events to transport us into (even) colder climbs.
This year’s snow-themed event line-up includes an Aspen-themed launch party (Friday, June 27), poutine-fuelled Canada Day celebrations (Saturday, June 28), Winter Night Markets (June 30 - July 4), a Mario Kart racing event (Wednesday, July 2) and a very special appearance from a Shania Twain tribute band (Tuesday, July 1).
