Sunsets, harbour views and live music are a match made in heaven. This January, you can get a dose of all three by simply jumping on a ferry to Cockatoo Island. Sunset Sessions is back for summer with a jam-packed program of live gigs by the harbour. The popular alfresco event returns to the lawns of the historic Biloela House and features home-grown talent from across Australia.
Sunset Sessions At Cockatoo Island
Watch the sunset and settle in for live music by talented artists, by a rotating line-up of artists every Saturday from January 10 to April 4. Set on the harbourfront lawns of Cockatoo Island, the relaxed outdoor sessions include snacks and refreshments available to purchase on-site, with discounted food and drinks offered when pre-ordered with your tickets.
