Sydney’s most essential summer ritual returns on the courts, bringing a new season of day-to-night heat.

It’s more than a party — it’s a summer ritual. The music pulls you in, but it’s the feeling that keeps you there: sun on your skin, bodies in motion, a dancefloor alive with connection. 

Built on community, expression, and a little bit of chaos, Summer Dance has become a fixture of Sydney’s cultural calendar — each edition a chapter in the city’s summer story.  

The new season kicks off Saturday, 29 November, opening with the first Summer Dance of 2025/26.

Across the season, Liberty Hall Courts transform into an open-air playground by day, before the energy carries inside to Liberty Hall for After Dark. Carefully curated lineups bring together international tastemakers and the most exciting local names, soundtracking long afternoons and nights that stretch far beyond the last track.

The first lineup drops Tuesday, 7 October 10am AEDT — stay locked.

The courts are calling. Stay busy this summer.
