NSW Minister for Jobs, Investment, Tourism and Western Sydney Stuart Ayres said the event would be hugely popular among Sydneysiders and visitors.
“Splendour in the City will reinforce why Sydney is the greatest city in the world – we’re open for business and we’re enjoying COVID-safe live entertainment against the most spectacular backdrop of Sydney Harbour,” Mr Ayres said.
