Australians will seize on just about any excuse for a celebration, and while you’re visiting this country it only makes sense to follow the light-hearted, self-indulgent lead of its inhabitants. The year gets off to a champagne-swilling start when fireworks explode high above Sydney Harbour on New Year’s Eve. The new year is also vigorously celebrated further south during the Hobart Summer Festival, when Taswegians stuff themselves with food, wine and song. In late January the streets of Tamworth in NSW are littered with broken guitar strings and broken hearts during its famous Country Music Festival, while Sydney vamps itself up in February when the Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras overwhelms Oxford St with rowdy, colourful glam. The exuberant Adelaide Festival of Arts and its eccentric sibling, Adelaide Fringe, fill the SA capital with culture and idiosyncratic performances in March every two years. And in April in Victoria, Melbourne repeatedly smacks its own funny bone with the outstanding International Comedy Festival. The outback Queensland town of Longreach droves itself crazy with dust-raising thrills during the three-day Outback Muster in May. Meanwhile, for sheer quirkiness and dedication to silliness, the NT’s long-running Beer Can Regatta in Darwin in July is an absolute must-see. Indigenous music is the highlight of Stompen Ground, held September/October in the WA town of Broome. Golden beaches, baked red deserts and glam­orous cities. An ancient indigenous history and a young, vibrant culture: welcome to Australia! Stick around, hang out with us a while.

Berlitz Pocket Guide Sydney is the ultimate guide to this magnificent city. With 144 pages combining authoritative narrative detail and striking colour photography, the book contains two new features to entice visitors: a breakdown of Sydney's Top 10 Attractions and an itinerary for a Perfect Day in the city. An introduction to Sydney gives you background information on its people and outdoor lifestyle, followed by a brief history of Australia, including a quick-reference Historical Landmarks timeline. Throughout the guide, colour feature boxes brief you on points of historical and cultural interest. The main section of the book is the Where to Go chapter, which tells you everything you need to know about the city's many sights and attractions. Organised geographically, it begins in Sydney Harbour and covers each area of the city in turn, from Sydney Opera House on the western side of Circular Quay, through to Central Sydney, King Cross and Paddington in the Eastern Suburbs, and the hedonistic lifestyle on Sydney's glorious beaches. The chapter then covers the awe-inspiring Blue Mountains, where you can experience Australia's natural beauty, and the Hunter Valley wine region, before moving on to Australia's capital city, Canberra, just a short trip from Sydney. Throughout the chapter, number dots link the sights to the handy maps on the cover flaps. Next, the What to Do chapter is a snapshot of ways to spend your spare time, from scuba-diving and sailing through to spectator sports and live music, as well as nightlife and entertainment, shopping, and the best activities for children. There is also a Festival Calendar so you can check what's on while you're in the city. The Eating Out chapter covers the city's varied cuisine, describing what to eat, where to try it and what drinks are on offer. The chapter is followed by carefully chosen listings of the best Places to Eat in the city. The final sections of the guide are the A-Z Travel Tips - covering all the practical information you'll need, from budgeting to health to transport - and listings of Sydney's best hotels.
