Overview

Eleven days of soccer action kick off in Darling Harbour this month. Held on a floating football pitch in Cockle Bay, the Big Issue Street Football Festival will bring together players and fans from across the country. The event has grown since its inception in 2011, and in 2014 will welcome hundreds of players.

Incorporating government, corporate and junior events, the festival spans a range of competitions, including the national championships of the Big Issue's Community Street Soccer Program. The program supports disadvantaged people who are experiencing homelessness, disability and long-term unemployment. Check out the full event program for dates and details on other matches.
