In A Nutshell:…read more -Qudos Bank Arena located in Olympic Park, is located just outside Sydney heading towards Parramatta. -I ended up here to see Drake perform during his, worldwide "Boy Meets World Tour". -Drake as usual didn't disappoint, showing lot's of love to Sydney & Australians in general, while flipping through his endless catalog of hits seamlessly. -The arena held 19,000 easily. -The hallways never felt crowded. The men's bathrooms were also never crowded & clean. -The only drawback was the lack of good food being sold. -After being spoiled dining around Sydney, I expected great food options at the arena. Overall, this is a great arena for major concerts.

The Allphones Theatre is just massive! The speed getting through the doors is fairly quick and…read moreorganised.I have attended three shows in this theatre and am amazed how the seating is perfect for anyone in any seat. The view of the stage can be seen from all seats and the large screens give that closeness even if you are in seat zzzz. There are several snack bars and light snack cafes. Most places have alcohol. Parking at the parking station is a complete headache, just don't go there. There is a considerable charge and then the wait to get out is over half an hour on a concert night. The train to Olympic Park is the best option and at a reasonable price. There are always extra trains put on the line when there are concerts.

Watched the Parramatta Eels get clobbered by the Manly Sea Eagles in this very suburban stadium…read more From Sydney, we took the river cat ferry service for a pleasant taste of the suburbs and sporting life. Fun environment to see a rugby game outside the big city stadiums. Kept up fine, but small even by the standard of mid-sized college stadiums in the US. Literally no bad seats in the house. One particular highlight was the members' club across the street, where we had quite a decent dinner before walking back to the stadium for the game. (Food in the stadium itself was underwhelming.)

I love this stadium. People complain about how small it is and how you have to schlep all the way…read moreto Homebush, but my answer to that is simple - stay home! Tell me how much you enjoy it on your 32inch disappointment! Getting to Olympic Park - if you don't take public transport you are an idiot. Good God, it's one of the only places that is designed to get you in and out as quick as possible (apart from your first girlfriend). The ground itself has the feel of a local ground with the facilities of a giant stadium. So close you can here the players fart! Enjoy whatever you are watching, it's a great family friendly place to go.

What a fantastic stadium!! It literally is spotless- super clean and comfortable. The oval is…read morereally great to walk around and check out the shops and food vendors. The choices of food vendors was enviable compared to what we typically have at ball games in the US (although they are getting much better). I wish we had options of kebab, shewarma, Asian food and lots of other great stuff!! The seats were solid and it seemed like no matter where you sat, you would have a decent view. Bathrooms were incredibly clean for a stadium (maybe this is common on the land of Oz?). I hope US sports team owners will visit stadiums in Australia if this is a similar experience I would have elsewhere. Top notch!

I wanted to see a live cricket game while visiting Australia and the opportunity finally came up on…read moremy last night in Sydney. Looking at different options to get to the stadium, I used the public transport from outside my hotel in Circilar Quay to Moore Park right next to the stadium. Very easy to navigate and so many guides on the platforms willing to help. Each trip was $4.60. Game was at 7:10 but I arrived early to have drinks and dinner at a local bar. I got to the stadium about an hour before the game, lot's of activities going on outside the gates. From games for kids, face painting, sitting on Santa's lap and KFC buckets to wear on your head. Apparently this is something fans do here, had to try it. I purchased a ticket on site, told them my first game wanted a seat close enough to see the action... for $20 i had a great seat in the upper bill o'reilly section. I sat with complete strangers but in no time we were all talking and cheering on the local team- the Sydney Sixers. Still learning the rules of the game but it was still a lot of fun. I had some beers during the game, loved that right behind us was a concession stand. A few drink and food options but glad I ate before the game. The sixers ended up losing to the Brisbane Heat by 48 runs.

Its terrible when the event is over and can take more than an hour to leave the car park. - Keep your drink holder. They charge for them! - Grab a few drinks before you show up. The drinks are expensive and most areas only sell mid strength beer. - Grab a feed before you show up, food can be expensive or depending on the event, bring your own.

The Ladies stand is accessible to the public when Sheffield Shield (cricket) is playing but is restricted to members only for test matches. Transport is not great unless special buses are put on and the walk from Central Railway is a bit of a hike. Food is way over priced but access to water is free. Alcohol can't be brought into the ground and full strength can't be bought in the public area and what can be bought is very very expensive You often see patrons getting their grog before any match at the local pub Often it is free entry to Sheffield Shield matches

Note that this is from an American's POV…read more Accor Stadium (previously ANZ Stadium) is a large venue that has sport matches and major concerts. I decided to buy tickets the day of to see Lady Gaga during her Mayhem Ball, and the place was nearly full. Supposedly there was 80k people in attendance. It sounds chaotic being at a place with so many people, but it was actually quite smooth. It's super easy to get there by train. You just get off at Olympic Park station and walk about 10 minutes to the stadium. Leaving might be a different story for people, but I left midway during Gaga's last song and didn't bother staying for the encore. Because of this, I was able to get on the train quite quickly without waiting too long. Of course other people had the same idea too, but it wasn't too bad. I've even watched people running from the stadium to the train station, which I thought was a bit much. There's food stands outside before you enter the stadium. Think of them as food stands you'd see at the state fairs. You can get tornado potatoes on a stick, burgers, etc. There's also food inside the stadium, and the pricing is actually very reasonable vs. the ridiculous prices you see at American stadiums like LA's Crypto Arena. It's partial they don't rip you off like crazy and the AUD/USD exchange rate. I got a small gelato for $6, which would probably be more like in the $10+ range in America. You can get banh mi, sushi, burgers, pizza, gelato, etc. For drinks I think there was only beer, seltzer, and wine. If you want to look for sit down restaurants outside the venue, it's quite limited. You'd have to go to the next town over for some good food, and it's about a 20 minute train ride. This stadium is outdoor, so luckily the day I went wasn't raining. It rained the next day, and I would imagine it's unpleasant especially in the seats I had where there's no cover. Overall, it was a good experience. Accor is a good venue for massive concerts. Also for some background: I was trying to buy tickets to see Gaga in San Francisco on the day of the concert, and it was all resellers selling for $300+ for shit seats so I didn't go to that one. It was too ridiculous. In Sydney I bought directly from the official ticketing platform that morning of the concert for $120, not even from resellers, and it worked perfectly fine. My suggestion is if you can, sometime it's probably better to travel to see big acts elsewhere vs. back home if you have the means to. Like Taylor Swift, it was difficult to get tickets to go see her at So-Fi Stadium because of bots and scalpers, the reseller tickets were outrageously priced, and the experience is stressful. I imagine it was probably less stressful to get tickets in Sydney.
