Major Events and Festivals EOI

Burwood Council is seeking Expressions of Interest (EOIs) from new and previous event organisers for inclusion in the Major Events and Festivals Program being presented at Burwood Park in 2026.

This EOI process enables a fair and transparent application process, eliminates uncertainty around bookings and seeks to deliver a curated, inspired and engaging Major Events and Festivals Program at Burwood Park. It also enables event organisers to focus on unique and quality programming whilst ensuring a safe and well-presented event. .

Burwood Council is committed to supporting the presentation of up to twelve major events and festivals from February to December 2026 at Burwood Park.

Located in the heart of one of Australia’s most culturally diverse communities - and recently ranked the coolest neighbourhood in Australia - Burwood Park hums with an energy that’s uniquely its own. Just a five-minute walk from Burwood Train Station, this large and historic park lies at the centre of Burwood’s Town Centre, making it an easily accessible and highly visible destination for major festivals and events.

As Council’s premier park, Burwood Park serves as the main stage for a diverse calendar of community celebrations throughout the year. From cultural festivals and family-friendly events to culinary showcases and artistic experiences, the park brings creativity, culture and connection to life across every season. Its proven visitor appeal, constant foot traffic and welcoming crowds make it one of Sydney’s most sought-after outdoor event venues.

Burwood Park offers a range of high-quality facilities and event spaces to support performances, festivals, market and other activations. The Burwood Park Pavilion and Burwood Park Community Centre provide stage infrastructure and back-of-house areas ideal for event operations and performances. Other key features include the Burwood Park Pond, a large multi-use sports field, BBQ and picnic areas, a café, a new nature play space and all-abilities playground, accessible amenities, outdoor fitness stations, the War Memorial Arch, and public art installations that celebrate Burwood’s culture and identity.
