Because Sydney's weather is so fabulous all year 'round, there's never a
shortage of activities to be enjoyed in this harbourside haven. If
adventure is your thing, take yourself to the top of the world's largest
"coathanger" on a Harbour Bridge climb. For movie buffs, Fox
Studios has a backlot tour of the filmmaking facility. You can take your
pick from a huge range of seasonal activities, such the outdoor cinemas in
Centennial Park and Botanical Gardens on balmy evenings through summer. Be
part of the hundreds of thousands who flock to Oxford Street for the Mardi
Gras parade every autumn. Enjoy Australia's own football codes, Aussie
Rules when Sydney's home team, The Swans, play at the Football Stadium
through winter. Or try the Sydney Fish Markets for some fresh spring
seafood fare.
Take a look at the next month's coming events below. To
