About Sydney Olympic Park

Originally developed as the main site for the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, Sydney Olympic Park has grown into one of the city’s most important sport, entertainment and recreation precincts. Major venues include Accor Stadium, Qudos Bank Arena, ENGIE Stadium and the Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre, attracting some of Sydney’s biggest sporting events, concerts, expos and live performances.

For families and leisure visitors, there’s plenty to explore beyond the stadiums. The Aquatic Centre is home to indoor heated pools, water play areas, a rapid river ride and the pool where Ian Thorpe famously won Olympic gold. Nearby, Bicentennial Park offers lakeside picnic areas, barbecue facilities, playgrounds and more than 35km of cycling pathways through one of Australia’s largest urban parklands.

Sydney Olympic Park also hosts major events throughout the year, including the Sydney Royal Easter Show, plus regular markets, community events and exhibitions. Whether you’re heading there for a headline concert, a family day out or a walk through the parklands, the precinct offers a full day of things to see and do.
