5. Catch a game or concert at Sydney Cricket Ground

Fancy some cricket or the good ol’ rugby? This is the place to root for your favourites among all the other 46,000 sports fans. There’s really no other way to describe watching a live match amongst the uproarious crowd.

The Sydney Cricket Ground history began in 1851 when the British Army were told to take their bats and balls to entertain themselves on an empty land, south of the barracks. Since then, it’s been home to millions of cricket-crazed locals.

But this site is not only for sports. In fact, the venue has hosted concerts by big names such as The Rolling Stones, Madonna, and Green Day. So check out the website for their exciting schedule!
