    Art Galleries

     

    There is always something romantic about a date at a public art gallery or museum right? Especially if you both are art lovers. If you agree and are looking for this type of romantic activity in the city, luck is in your favour. Sydney has two art galleries you can visit after dark, the Museum of Contemporary Art and the Art Gallery of NSW. The former hosts various late night events where it stays open till late night, making it ideal for a weekday date after work. The exhibitions here change often so it is better if you check their websites before visiting  but often includes workshops, wines, talks, live music and food. All are welcome but usually it is more of an adult event. The Art Gallery of New South Wales also offers evening events known as Art After Hours, check their schedule online!

     

    Luna Park

     

    Sydney after dark is a truly breathtaking sight and one of the most iconic things to do at night is visiting Luna Park. Luna Park on Milsons Point is a famous amusement park which overlooks Sydney Harbour and has been one of the star tourist attractions since its inception in 1935. The kids will love the wide range of rides, games and other activities, even the grinning moonface at the entrance  and although you can easily visit here during daytime, the lights of the park will fill the night sky and is a sight to behold! Take the family for a fun ride on the famous Ferris Wheel as it offers equal enjoyment of rkids and ducks with mesmerising views of the harbour and its precincts. The best part about the park is that you can spend any amount of time as you like as the entry is free! You just have to pay for the rides and games.
