About the festival
The University of Sydney Community Festival welcomes everyone to experience the magic of campus.
This year, the University of Sydney marks 175 years of education, discovery and service. The Community Festival is our chance to celebrate this enduring legacy with the people who made it possible — our students, staff, alumni, and wider community.
Come explore the iconic grounds, meet inspiring minds, and experience the energy of a world-class institution built on community connection. This is your chance to experience the University in a new way through interactive talks, hands-on workshops, live music, family activities, food, culture and more. There’s something for everyone, all in one vibrant space!
Whether you're a local, a graduate, a student, or just curious, we can’t wait for you to join us on campus to connect, explore and enjoy at the Community Festival, Saturday 8 November 2025.
