All donations will go towards Sony Foundation Australia’s Children’s Holiday Camp program.

Sony Foundation’s Children’s Holiday Camp Program provides the holiday of a lifetime for children with disability, whilst also providing free overnight respite care to give the parents and carers of the children a much-needed break. Uniquely, campers are provided with 24/7 primary care for four days/three nights by high school and university students who also create fun and new experiences for the children while building lifelong friendships; a Christmas before Christmas.

Every $1,640 raised will fund a child to attend a Sony Foundation Camp.

In 2023:

180 children with disability will enjoy the holiday of a lifetime at one of seven NSW-based Sony Foundation Camps, held in partnership with 13 schools and universities.

370 high school and university students will provide 24/7 care to the children over the three-night / four-day camp, breaking down stigmas around disability and encouraging pathways into the disability sector.

For the children’s families, Sony Foundation Camps provide critical free overnight respite care.

This season, Darling Harbour is coming alive with events and activities
that put the 'merry' in Merry Christmas.

Dive head-first into festive kids’ fun at The Harbour Village, where your little elves can write letters to Santa, be spellbound by Aussie storytelling sessions, get crafty at Santa's workshop, or have a dance-off with Santa’s DJ helpers.

Or why not enjoy a pedal boat ride on Cockle Bay, get your putt on with Pixar Putt mini golf or snap a selfie in front of the giant Christmas bauble

Looking for somewhere to grab a bite? From authentic Asian flavours in Darling Square to casual alfresco dining in Darling Quarter, and prime harbourside dining at Cockle Bay, there are over 150 incredible places to try this Christmas.
