Tumbalong Park is gearing up to host an array of free, family-friendly events during SXSW 2023, and we are here for it! 

From augmented reality showcases to immersive dance features, the lineup promises a mix of entertainment, education, and fun. Whether you're a Sydney local or a visitor, this is a golden opportunity to indulge in some quality family time. 

These events are a total treat – and guess what? They're all on the house! While they're perfect for families with kiddos aged 10 and up, little ones of all ages are more than welcome to join the fun, especially at the musical beats. Just a little heads-up: make sure the youngsters have an adult sidekick with them at all times. Let's keep it fun and safe for everyone!
