Parramatta Park
Parramatta Park is a World Heritage-listed Park. The Park covers 85 hectares including The Crescent, Old Government House, The Dairy Cottage, Parramatta Observatory site, Bath House, Boer War Memorial, Lady Fitzroy Memorial and cultural and natural heritage areas with approximately 10 hectares of remnant Cumberland Plain vegetation.

The Crescent is one of Sydney's most sought-after major outdoor event spaces. This spectacular outdoor amphitheatre along Parramatta River, is at the centre of Parramatta Park and hosts concerts and events throughout the year, including The Crescent Summer Series and Sydney Festival’s Symphony Under the Stars.
