The Best Outdoor Events to Head to in Sydney This Summer

Summer is well and truly here and, despite warnings that we were in for a wet and gloomy set of warmer months, it's turned out to be a sunny affair in Sydney so far. This makes it the perfect time to get your cultural fix at an outdoor event, or to head to a spot where you can enjoy a meal and something to drink while you soak in some rays.

Luckily, Sydney has plenty happening across its array of outdoor spaces. Whether you're keen to putt your way through themed mini golf courses, sip G&Ts at a pop-up bar with harbour views or catch a movie at an openair cinema, this city's got you covered. Here's where to head if you're looking to make the most of the warm weather and crisp summer air.
