Sydney, the ‘Emerald City’ is always bursting with activities and things to do. The night is always young, where there is so much offered to excite you. Goes without saying, the vibe and ambience of the city at night is just beyond words. And that’s what makes it the best time to spend it with our loved ones or just by ourselves. There is always something to explore and experience once the sun sets in Sydney. For all those who are on the lookout for some night time activities, here are the best of the lot.

Kick start your night out with breathtaking fireworks at Cockle Bay

Look up at the sky as it bursts into a canvas of colours above Darling Harbour. As the area surrounding Cockle Bay is nearly 2 km long, take a front row seat right by the water’s edge for the best views of the fireworks. Cockle Bay Wharf has three whole levels of restaurants and bars with mouth-watering food and cocktails, all promising the premium views of the fireworks display. This breathtaking spectacle occurs over Cockle Bay at 9pm on Saturday nights throughout the year.

Take in the best night views of the harbour on board Sydney dinner cruises

How does this sound? A unique waterfront dining venue, the marvellous sights of Sydney’s iconic attractions, a mesmerising ambience and the company of your loved ones all aboard one of the best dinner cruises on Sydney Harbour. Wonderful, no doubt. Soak in the illuminated harbour attractions and the city skyline at night from its outer decks as you wine, dine and sightsee. Be part of an all-in-one marvellous experience.

Go for a night-time pub crawl through the Rocks in Sydney

Want to head out for some drinks at night? Make it more exciting by going for a night-time pub crawl. To learn about the history of Sydney as you have a few drinks, head to the Rocks which is the oldest part of the city. It’s home to over 12 historic pubs including several newer bars that have sprung up lately. Some of the oldest pubs in The Rocks are - The Lord Nelson, The Fortune of War and The Australian Hotel. Take a tour of each of these pubs that offers you a natural ambience. You can look around at many other sophisticated bars and pubs right at the centre of the city.

Be a part of the night climb at Sydney Harbour Bridge

Another unique night-time activity in Sydney is the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge Night Climb. Not only is this exciting but to be able to make it to the top of the Harbour Bridge is an unexplained feeling by itself. The BridgeClimb Experience is divided into four. You can take your best pick.

Ultimate - Here, you can climb the entire breadth of the bridge from South to North and back again. This is the most adventurous Climb experience where you can view the best sights of Sydney from all angles

Summit - Discover 360°panoramic views of Sydney while scaling the iconic Harbour Bridge

Summit Insider - Take a journey through the heart of the Bridge, the cathedral of steel, along the lower arch before you burst through to the summit

Burrawa (Indigenous Experience) - Scale towards the summit of the bridge with an indigenous storyteller and guide. Enjoy the 360° views as the storyteller as he takes you back in time with Sydney’s Aboriginal history and guides you forward to the summit
