"Well welcome to 2007 and for the first time the City of
Sydney is now providing bike parking at the events in the
Domain. It would be great to see lots of bikes there. - Andrew Dodds
The City of Sydney is providing free secure bicycle parking
for up to
320 bicycles at both Jazz and Symphony in the Domain, part
of the Sydney
Festival.
If you are attending the concerts, help keep Sydney's air
clean and
reduce traffic congestion by cycling to the events. Cycling
is also
great for your health and fitness.
City of Sydney will be giving away free bike pumps to the
first 20
cyclists to use the bicycle parking facility at each Domain
Concert.
Security guards will be manning the bike parking throughout.
When:
Jazz in the Domain, Saturday 13th January
Symphony in the Domain, Saturday 20th January
Opening times:
3:30pm - 11:15pm
(The concerts commence at 8pm and finish at approximately
10:30pm)
Location:
The secure bicycle parking area is located behind the stage,
on the
corner of Art Gallery and Hospital Roads. Access is from Art
Gallery
Road.
Bike locks:
While the bicycle racks will be within a fenced area
patrolled by
security, cyclists are required to supply their own bike
locks/chains to
secure their bikes to the rack.
Whilst the City of Sydney will take care of bikes left in
this bike
parking area, the City of Sydney, Sydney Festival and
Botanic Gardens
Trust takes no responsibility for any damage to, or loss of,
your bike
or other property as a result of your use of the bike
parking."
